Illustrated with 5 full page black and white drawings by Virgil Finlay. This copy is SIGNED by Finlay on the front endpaper with the words 'In Memory of A. Merritt, the Lord of Fantasy.' Books signed by Finlay are very uncommon. The rear cover of the dustjacket contains a tribute to Abraham Merritt by Forrest J. Ackerman, and the rear flap has a photograph and biographical information about Finlay. Very near fine in a near fine dustjacket - the spine of the dustjacket has a light crease and a few minute chips at the bottom edge, 1 short closed tear on back cover. . |
