Contact seller5-star sellerFirst Edition. A collection of short stories by John Collier, a master of the weird tale. Here are two dozen "astonishing and memorable accounts of the ways in which the normal individual may run afoul of the bizarre, the occult, and the openly fiendish."

Ref. CURREY p. 121. Bound in brown cloth over boards with spine and upper board titled in silver. Clean interior, slight bumps to spine ends, fore corners remain sharp.
