GREAT GHOST STORIES ... With a Foreword by James H. Hyslop. New York: Dodd, Mead and Company, 1926. Octavo, pp. [i-iv] v-vii [viii-xii] 1-365 [366-368: blank] [note: last leaf is a blank], original black cloth, front and spine panels stamped in orange, bottom edge rough-trimmed. Later printing. A reprint of this anthology first published in 1918 that collects twelve stories by Edward Bulwer-Lytton, A. T. Quiller-Couch, Margaret Oliphant, Erckmann-Chatrian, Thomas Hardy, M. R. James and others. Bleiler (ed), The Guide to Supernatural Fiction 664. Bleiler (1978), p. 77. Reginald 05643. Owner's name rubber-stamped on title page. Cloth badly stained, but a sound reading copy with clean interior in a chipped and torn pictorial dust jacket (priced $2.00) which presents well overall (the front and spine panels are largely intact and attractive). Obviously, a married copy, but the jacket is, nevertheless, a later print jacket. (#170255).
