London, George G. Harrap, 1919.
First Clarke edition. 4to. Plates and illustrations. Original sage cloth, decorated in black.
Harry Clarke’s superb black & white images provide the perfect counterpoint to Poe’s dark tales. A decent copy, if anything enhanced by the Shrewsbury School’s gilt coat-of-arms to upper cover.
