Seventeen illustrations by W. L.Taylor. Book in very good to near fine condition with slight wear to head and foot of spine. First thus. TINY NICK ON SPINE CVR It tells of a talking raven's mysterious visit to a distraught lover tracing the man's slow descent into madness. The lover often identified as being a student is lamenting the loss of his love Lenore. The raven sitting on a bust of Pallas the goddess of wisdom seems to further instigate his distress with its constant repetition of the word "Nevermore". The poem makes use of a number of folk and classical references. Poe claimed to have written the poem very logically and methodically. His intention was to create a poem that would appeal to both critical and popular tastes e. p. Dutton NY hardcover

1870réf. 363564Philadelphia: Tyndale Mitchell & Co 1870. Third Edition. Pamphlet. Good. The third separate printing of The Raven following a Glasgow edition in 1869 listed as BAL 16216 but not seen and the illustrated version published by W. Jennings Demorest about July 1870 Demorest's Illustrated Monthly printed an illustrated version of The Raven in its May 1870 issue of the magazine; by July of that year Jennings Demorest was advertising the book version at 25 cents in wrappers and 50 cents in cloth. BAL 16213 also records an 1862 sheet music version. This edition illustrated with four wood engravings by David Scattergood printed in black ink on a brown background appears to have been offered as a premium by an enterprising printer who sold the idea to a number of companies near the end of 1870. This version was issued by Tyndale Mitchell & Co. importers of china and stoneware from Europe. Johns Hopkins records a version from Singer Manufacturing and Brown has one from P. P. Hayes a silversmith in Poughkeepsie NY. A couple of years later the same sheets were sold to newspapers as carrier addresses which are also found with a variety of imprints. Unlike the Singer and Hayes versions of this pamphlet Tyndale added a printed note to the inside front cover and dated it Christmas 1870. A charming scarce and early version of Poe's most popular poem. 7 1 poem set to music pages. 5-3/4 by 8-7/8 inches. Gray wrappers printed in blue and brown; Greek-style urn graphic on the back cover. Christmas greeting reproduced from handwriting on inside front cover; Tyndale Mitchell add on inside back cover. Second American edition third overall Tyndale issue. Spine nearly split; wrappers with small areas of loss old water spots on the front cover but generally good. Scarce and fragile. Tyndale, Mitchell & Co unknown

He illustrated many works by important authors for major publishers such as Diogenes Hoffmann und Campe and Piper. From 1962 onwards Prussen realised his own book projects with the Donkey Press in which he could give material form to his artistic and qualitative demands. The printing of Poe's The Raven can be regarded as the culmination of Prussen's artistic work. Donkey Press
réf. 890 - 581 - 072First edition of Harry Clarke's surreal gothic Art Nouveau illustrations in the scarce dust jacket Publisher and Year: London: George G. Harrap & Co. Ltd. 1919 - Edition: First trade edition first printing MCMXIX on the title page of Harry Clarke's illustrated collection of Edgar Allan Poe's stories. Copies in the dust jacket are scarce. We could locate just seven appearances of the jacket on the market in commercial records which included a review of Rare Book Hub the ABSA database WorthPoint and the major auction sites. - Condition and Description: Large quarto 10.75" x 8.75" olive cloth stamped in black and gilt top edge gilt with all 24 plates and additional in-text vignettes by Harry Clarke present. An uncommonly well-preserved example with clean boards bright gilt and undisturbed stamping. Minimal surface and edgewear foredge tips bumped. Contemporary owner's name in ink on the half-title; else clear. Some age spotting between the two leaves following the half title. Clean pages with occasional minor imperfections as shown. The incredibly scarce jacket is a little shorter than the book as issued with tears to the front panel neatly reinforced on the verso with tape edgewear and darkening especially at the spine. A large visually arresting volume that commands presence on shelf or display. - "Words have no power to impress the mind without the exquisite horror of their reality." – Edgar Allan Poe The Premature Burial. Clarke's illustrations give form to the world of horror Poe conjured amplifying their impact through a visual language as ornate and unsettling as the tales themselves. Born in Dublin in 1889 Clarke trained as both an illustrator and stained-glass artist and became one of the central figures of the Irish Arts and Crafts Movement. By the time Tales of Mystery and Imagination appeared in 1919 he was already celebrated for his intricate jewel-like stained glass. In this first major book commission he brought that same precision and Symbolist intensity to twenty-four monochrome plates. Drawing on Art Nouveau line work and Gothic sensibility Clarke created images that seem to inhabit Poe's world rather than merely depict it producing nightmarish visions that have secured his place as one of the defining illustrators of the early twentieth century. - Inventory ID: 890 - 581 - 072 hardcover
