THE LONDON NIGHTS OF BELSIZE
London: John Lane The Bodley Head. 1917. First edition first printing. First edition first printing. Publisher's original green cloth with black titles to the upper board and spine. A near very good copy the binding square and sound with rubbing to the extremities and a little fraying at the spine tips and corners. The contents with a previous owner's name in ink to the front endpaper are otherwise clean throughout. Scarce. A collection of stories in the vein of Robert Louis Stevenson's New Arabian Nights that includes the Sherlockian homage "Belsize as a Commentator: Sherlock Holmes". The chapter was later reprinted in its entirety in the 'Incunabular Sherlock Holmes' 1958 resulting in several letters to the editor of The Sherlock Holmes Journal that noting its similarity to an Andrew Lang piece of 1904 ranged from accusations of "literary osmosis" to outright plagiarism. Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request. Lucius Books welcomes direct contact with our customers. London: John Lane, The Bodley Head. 1917 hardcover

Popular Publications Inc. 1950. First Edition January 1951 issue though it was copyrighted in 1950; there would in fact be yet a later 1951 issue copyrighted and published in 1950 as well. Octavo 112 pp. Pages age-toned as always mild edgewear two light creases to cover one closed cut has been tape repaired on the front cover else remarkably sharp well-bound and clean. Overall Very Good. FFM was a relatively long-lived entry in the pulp fiction periodical industry of the era and though it did to a degree indulge the now classic anonymous semi-lurid pulchritudinous cover art that was one of the selling points of the field its included generally but not exclusively later-rights literature was of the first water within the sibling pulp genres of mystery fantasy horror and science fiction. Most issues included only two to four stories in fact whatever it took to end up at about 112 pp. at least one being of novella to novel length. In this issue a very Liz-Taylorish looking Cleoptraesque queen bedecks the cover she being the title queen of the lead story in the issue Sax Rohmer's Brood of the Witch-Queen. Others: The Disintegration Machine Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and The King of the World A.E. Coppard. For a bit of ephemera the original dime-store receipt for 25 cents - no sales tax added - is laid in. A bright and still sturdy exemplar of a generally fragile genre American pulp fiction. LT21 <br/> <br/> All-Fiction Field, Inc. [Popular Publications Inc.] unknown
