First Edition (& 1st printing). Small octavo, original pictorial boards. 255 pp. 500 copies printed.Pictorial postcard, bookmark, and facsimile signature of M.R. James laid in, as issued. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket. "If there is anything about which the present generation is bewilderingly well-informed it is the subject o…f spooks." - "Seraphita" Friends and Spectres is a companion volume to Ghosts of the Chit-Chat (2020), an anthology of ghost stories by authors who had been members of the Cambridge University Chit-Chat Club along with M.

The majority of pieces here were originally published under pseudonyms, and over half appeared first in amateur magazines or local newspapers. All deal with the supernatural, and several of the stories are themselves spectres-or more properly "revenants", only now re-emerging into the light after decades of oblivion. There are rediscoveries here of "lost" tales by Arthur Reed Ropes, E. G. Swain, and the enigmatic "B.".
