Poison-Damsels, and other essays in Folklore and Anthropology.
London: Privately Printed for Chas. J. Sawyer, Ltd., 1952. Hardcover. 319p., hardbound in 10x7 inch textured red boards titled gilt and enclosed in the dust jacket. Generally presentable condition (bright and sound) with one bad eyesore: namely, reddish staining and ripple to lower front cover, then inside to pastedown and front free endsheet, and to the lower corner-tips of adjacent leaves including titlepage. Extremities of rear endsheet are also touched. This stain seems to derive from the dust jacket which has a black recto and a high-saturation red verso. The dust jacket is edgeworn and carelessly price-clipped, with a few printed words clipped away. An otherwise handsome item with rubricated titlepage and pretensions to finepress status. No colophon.
