The first trade edition with Harry Clarke’s Art Nouveau style gothic illustrations, appropriately eerie for Poe’s tales.

A very good copy, with some wear to the extremities of the jacket, chipped a little at the top of the spine panel, spine panel somewhat age toned. The cloth also a little worn and faded to the spine, fraying a little to the tips. Some offsetting to the endpapers, otherwise remarkably well kept.
