London, Chatto & Windus, 1884. First edition, first impression. Hardback. A good copy. Collects 16 short stories, an early collection of what proved to be a few good decades for weird fiction. Most (all?) previously published in the magazines. Good only, marred by a large split to the lower hinge, held only by about 70mm of webbing. Corners and spine tips bumped and rubbed, front hinge split to the paper but webbing holding. 32pp ads, dated October 1884. [11879, Hyraxia Books].
