A collection of 28 stories some criminous some fantasy and most if not all seeming to come from British sources and thereby introducing such literature to the American public. Among the contributors are Thomas Hardy Wilkie Collins Ouida Charles Reade Alphonse Daudet Walter Besant F. Antsey Robert Louis Stevenson and others. But perhaps most notable is the story BONES which is Arthur Conan Doyle's first appearance in book form. An obvious must for the serious Doyle collector. Quite scarce. Dodd Mead unknown

1911réf. 8839East Aurora NY: The Roycrofters 1911. Near Fine. Folio. 42 consecutive issues bound in 7 volumes with ads and many additions. 1/2 suede over laid-paper covered boards printed in black and red. Untrimmed and often unopened. Starting with Vol.1 April 1908 No.1 and ending with Vol 7 September 1911 No.6. Each bound volume has 6 issues. Each issue has 16-32pp. of text and 20-32pp of ads. Text is printed in two colors usually black and pink on very nice paper with adds appearing on smooth tan or white paper. Text is numbered consecutively. The cover of these large attractive magazines was designed by Dard Hunter and Hubbard himself wrote most of the ads. Alice Hubbard wrote much of the magazine but there were many contributors. Some illustrations by Denslow. These bound volumes have what appears to be additional sheets usually caricatures or jokes as transitions from one issue to another. All covers are present. There is an occasional small edge tear or crease but for the most part it appears that the volumes were made up of new unread issues of the magazine with the exception of Volume 5 where the magazines appear lightly used and have some small tears and creases to some of the covers and pages. Two issues April and May of 1911 have a different style cover pictorial in blue. The bindings are all in very nice condition; the rear endpaper of Volume 5 has a slight rippling but no evidence of moisture. There are pencil marks that appear to be editorial throughout the text sections of all volumes; they are not particuarly distracting. The Roycrofters unknown
