8vo, pp. 126. Half-bound marble boards, half-title bound in, original front wrapper pasted to front pastedown. Printed in double columns. Spine label. Contents browned, portion of (later) spine label missing, but a well preserved copy. Rebound popular edition. First published by Methuen in 1902. The prolific 'Richard Marsh'/Rich…ard Heldmann [1857-1915] wrote in a wide variety of genres, but is now best remembered for his weird and supernatural fiction -- he was the author of The Beetle (1897), a best-seller published the same year as Bram Stoker's Dracula. His grandson was the modern master of weird fiction, Robert Aickman. The Twickenham Peerage is one of Marsh's more conventional tales: an impoverished aristocrat needs money to enable him to marry. Scarce in this cheap and flimsily made edition.

Contact seller4-star sellerLarge 16mo, original pictorial wrappers, side stapled. First U.S. edition. "The Adventure Library," number 104. A mystery novel first published in England (by Ward, Lock) in 1897 as THE MYSTERY OF PHILIP BENNION'S DEATH. Besides a good deal of weird atmosphere, the story also contains a small whiff of genuine magic that is, howe…ver, essential to the plot. With its notion of murder-as-a-fine-art, the novel summons up a fin-de-siécle mood of decadence that strays from the author's more usual Victorian manner. Hubin, p. 554. Not in Bleiler (1948; 1978) or Reginald (1979; 1992) or Day, Supplemental Checklist of Fantastic Literature. The bottom corner of the rear cover is folded and improperly trimmed (the paper is present but overhangs the margins of the book). Dust soiling to covers, negligible chipping to spine ends, a very good copy of an uncommon book. The pulpy paper is browned but quite supple and in no danger of chipping. (#145524).
