About this Item

John Buchan - The Watcher by the Threshold -1902 first edition published by William Blackwood and Sons. Unusual catalogue to the rear, the 2/02 is usually cited as the first issue and the 4/02 as the second issue, both of which I have seen several times. This copy has a 64 page catalogue to the rear noted 4/12 to the final page, which I have not encountered before. The book is reasonably firmly bound in the publisher's original illustrated blue cloth, which is slightly rubbed, bumped and marked, with fading to the spine and some minor loss of cloth to the top of the spine. The text block is age toned and a little foxed, with a neatly written name to the front pastedown. Buchan's superb collection of weird and supernatural stories, uncommon as a first edition and this copy with the minor bibliographic interest of the rogue catalogue to the rear.
