Scarce 1917 Wartime Printing. Octavo, pp. xvii, 187, complete with the original frontispiece illustration of the hand of Lord Kitchener and 4 pages of publisher advertisements to the rear. Bound in the original publisher's cloth with distinct cover illustrations and gilt text. The binding remains tight, square, and structurally robust. Internally, the primary text pages are clean, and free from internal markings.Condition & Production Note: True to its publication in 1917 during the height of First World War paper rationing, this edition utilises the characteristic high-acid wartime paper stock. Consequently, while the main text pages are clean, there is prominent, age-appropriate browning (page tone) and foxing heavily localised to the preliminary pages, frontispiece, endpapers, and the final index/advertisement leaves. Light bumping to the spine ends. Overall, a decent, robust copy of this early 20th-century occult classic.

Store description
I have collected books most of my life. My collection has reduced now to about 4,000 items. I list a few more as time goes by! It is difficult sometimes to allow old friends to move on. Of course, they can find fresh enthusiasm from their new owners. No matter how many items you handle, there's always excitement and interest. It is vital however that my items are described accurately and I would hope to offer good value. If you see something that you feel is 'too high' for your pocket, don't hesitate to make me an offer. I try to keep the postage costs down, and within the United Kingdom this will be free. Posting abroad will be competitive, and often I will not ask for additional amounts if this is viable. But weight of items is the deciding factor. I will add images to my descriptions, and I hope that the combination will help you to decide. Regardless, always double check or take time to contact me for further information, or merely just to clarify a point. Ask for more images. If I can reduce anything I will do so. If you purchase more than one item, then offering a decent discount is likely. If items are not as described or you have a valid problem with any item, then I am happy to make a full or partial refund. This will be in line with all Statutory guidelines e.g returning the book in the condition it was delivered, and do let me know as quickly as possible. If damage has occurred then try to provide images. Ring me on 01352-810931…
