Poe Edgar Allan
Eureka: A Prose Poem.
New York: George P. Putnam 1848. First edition first issue of Poe's classic work. Duodecimo original publishers blind stamped black cloth with gilt lettering to the spine. First issue without the review for Eureka on page 2 of the 16 page catalogue at the end of the book but reads simply: "Poe. -- Eureka A Prose Poem: Or the Physical and Metaphysical Universe. By Edgar A. Poe Esq." In very good condition with some light rubbing to the extremities contemporary inscription to the front free endpaper. Housed in a custom cloth box. A nice bright example of this rare and important text. Poe considered Eureka his magnum opus but Putnam only agreed to publish 500 copies due to the unique nature of the material. Eureka has often been misunderstood and ridiculed but it is in fact a remarkable precursor of several modern theories of physics and a powerful essay on the material and spiritual universe. Poe hypothesized that the universe began at a set point in the past and was finite rather than infinite. In arguing that the Universe of Stars must be finite he appeals to the evidence of observed experience. Poe wrote "Were the succession of stars endless then the background of the sky would present us an uniform luminosity like that displayed by the Galaxy-since there could be absolutely no point in all that background at which would not exist a star. The only mode therefore in which under such a state of affairs we could comprehend the voids which our telescopes find in innumerable directions would be by supposing the distance of the invisible background so immense that no ray from it has yet been able to reach us at all. That this may be so who shall venture to deny I maintain simply that we have not even the shadow of a reason for believing that it is so." BAL 16153. George P. Putnam hardcover books

Poe Edgar Allan. TALES. New York: Wiley & Putnam 1845. First edition third printing and first cloth-bound edition. Original green cloth gilt. Moderate foxing in text as always and mild discoloration to cloth but a very good copy with some fraying at foot of spine. The first printing was bound only in printed wrappers and only five copies in original wrappers are known some heavily restored and a sixth copy is known with only the spine wrapper preserved the last copy in wrappers in private hands was sold at auction June 12 2008 for $134500. The second and third printings were issued in cloth and was the first cloth-bound edition of Poe's TALES. BAL warns that "it is possible that the printings designated as second and third are in fact two states of the same printing." BAL also comments that "the majority of copies examined by BAL are repaired and possibly sophisticated." and we agree that untouched copies are uncommon. "Here. begins the detective story with `The Murders in the Rue Morgue' `The Mystery of Marie Roget' and. `The Purloined Letter'."-- Grolier American Hundred 55. This volume also includes three of Poe's masterpieces of horror: `The Fall of the House of Usher' `The Descent into the Maelstrom' and `The Gold Bug.' Heartman & Canny 1940 pp. 62-8.

Poe Edgar Allan
Tales of the Grotesque and Arabesque
Philadelphia: Lea and Blanchard 1840. First edition one of only an estimated 750 copies printed; with p. 213 correctly numbered. 2431; iv 4 5-228 pp. 2 vols. 8vo. Original purple muslin printed paper spine labels; cloth folding case. Labels chipped and darkened spines and upper board edges faded chip to rear joint of vol. 1 and 2-in. split along rear joint of vol. 2; foxed. Despite minor flaws an entirely original unsophisticated copy of a truly scarce set that today is typically found recased or otherwise restored. First edition one of only an estimated 750 copies printed; with p. 213 correctly numbered. 2431; iv 4 5-228 pp. 2 vols. 8vo. First edition; one of only 750 copies printed. The twenty-five stories in this American cornerstone include two of Poe's most important works: "Ms. Found in a Bottle" and "The Fall of the House of Usher." Poe had struggled since 1834 to collect his stories published in a variety of journals and magazines into book form. This publication was a major milestone for the author and critical praises included in the second volume by the likes of Washington Irving N.P. Willis J. F. Otis Mrs. Sigourney and notable academic reviews. Despite the enthusiasm it was a commercial failure.<br/><br/>Poe's recent success with "The Fall of the House of Usher" published in Burton's Gentleman's magazine in 1839 impressed the publishers Lea & Blanchard. They were not however confident in assured sales and it is recorded that in lieu of any royalties Poe received 20 free copies as payment. A prophetic anonymous reviewer in the Boston Notion proposed that Poe's work was better suited to readers of the future while readers of his time would find the stories "below the average of newspaper trash. wild unmeaning pointless aimless. without anything of elevated fancy or fine humor." Indeed readers of the future finally and firmly embraced Poe as a major innovator and master of the form. <br/><br/>Increasingly scarce in any condition but especially so in original condition. BAL 16133; Heartman & Canny pp. 49-54. Provenance: Maria W. Phelps penciled inscriptions dated Saturday August 14 1847 on front free endpapers in each volume. Possibly Maria Wilder Phelps Thayer of Boston b. 1828 wife of Boston merchant Frederick W. Thayer and mother of Harvard-educated Frederick W. Thayer inventor of the baseball catcher's mask Lea and Blanchard unknown books

TALES OF THE GROTESQUE AND ARABESQUE
Philadelphia: Lea and Blanchard 1840. Two volumes. 2431;iv45-228pp. 12mo. Original publisher's plum muslin printed spine labels. Spines sunned and labels a bit rubbed small nick at fore-edge of lower board of vol. II loss 8mm at its deepest point at crown of spine of vol. II extends 2cm along the top edge of the upper board scattered light foxing subtle early repairs to cloth along lower portion of joints of volume I a few slight spots of dulling to upper board of volume II slight starting to a couple of gatherings in volume II gilt morocco bookplate in each volume; still a good set internally very good of a title seldom seen in anything approaching fine condition. First edition. Poe's first collection of short stories published in an edition recorded as having consisted of 750 sets only. In this set II:213 is properly numbered; on p. II:219 the 'i' in 'ing' and the hyphen are still in proper alignment variations of these features are a consequence of type loosening and have no relevance in terms of priority of issue. The four pages of "opinions" are present in the second volume bound before the title. Among the stories here collected are some of Poe's earliest triumphs including "Ms. Found in a Bottle" "The Fall of the House of Usher" "William Wilson" "Ligeia" and others. BAL 16133. BLEILER SUPERNATURAL 1313. WRIGHT I:2056. HEARTMAN AND CANNY pp. 49-54. Lea and Blanchard hardcover books
