Descripción del artículo del vendedor

New York: Owen Phelan, 1834. First or Early American edition. 1834. Fair condition. Light scattered foxing. Most of black leather spine label has perished. Chip at top of spine. Evidence of "bio-predation" (some creature has gnawed along one edge of the leather cover -- about two inches). Small marginal worm hole (text is not affected). Lacks front flyleaf. Better than it sounds. Binding is square and tight. Hinges/joints are perfectly sound. The full leather binding is contemporary "sprinkled" calf (i.e. intentionally, and in this case attractively speckled, to achieve a marbled paper-like effect). First published in 1777 as THE CHAMPION OF VIRTUE, the book has been frequently reprinted under the present title. Although early London printings are available in abundance, early United States printings appear to be exceedingly scarce. "A Gothic novel derivative from Horace Walpole's THE CASTLE OF OTRANTO. includes some supernaturalism in the haunted chambers of the castle." -- Bleiler 1374 [GUIDE TO SUPERNATURAL FICTION]. "Reeve gets credit for installing Gothic literature's first haunted chamber within the castle complex." -- Tymn 1-322 [HORROR LITERATURE, A CORE COLLECTION AND REFERENCE GUIDE]. American Imprints 26489. Also cited in Hubin, Montague Summers THE GOTHIC QUEST, etc. . First or Early American edition. Hardcover. Fair condition. 12mo. vi, 162pp.…

Descripción de la tienda

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.…
