About This Item
New York: Hurst & Company, Publishers, 1900. A collection of two stories (the second is "John Barrington Cowles") that is not mentioned in Green & Gibson. This is a Hurst reprint, so where is the original? There is no publicationdate, but there is a contemporary gift inscription dated 1903 on the FFEP. Quercus therefore suggests circa 1900 as a possibility. Green cloth binding, nicely deorated on the spine and frontcover. Clean text; the title story has 111 pages, while the second is 119. Textblock is very clear and bright. Small spot on the front cover, and (perhaps) slightly faded. A rare item for the Doyle completist! No dustjacket; in an archival plastic protector.. Reprint Edition. Decorative Cloth. Very Good/No Jacket. 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall.
