This volume, published nearly a decade after the author's death, contains three of Smith's novels: Skin and Bones, involving a photographer's freak accident with chemicals causing metaphysical abnormalities; The Glorious Pool, a witty social commentary set against the backdrop of Prohibition; and Topper, perhaps Smith's best-known work, about a banker who encounters a slew of ghosts. Publisher's pale blue cloth, original pictorial dustjacket with advertisement for war bonds on the rear panel. [vi], 685, [5] pp. 7 3/4 x 5 3/8 in. Numerous black-and-white illustrations. Good; a bit shaken, dustjacket with loss to spine panel and chips at extremities, a few tears, some of which with clumsy tape repairs on the verso.
