The first publication in hardcovers of H.P. Lovecraft's poem "The Canal," a sonnet from his Fungi From Yuggoth poetry cycle. Published in an edition of 250 copies, this being one of the 75 copies in hardcover, as stated in the colophon. A very early hardbound appearance of H.P. Lovecraft poetry, I believe only preceded by his salutes to Jonathan Hoag in, THE POETICAL WORKS OF JONATHAN E. HOAG which appeared in 1923 . Predates his SHADOW OUT OF INNSMOUTH, of 1936. A very early hardcover book appearance, regardless, and very scarce. A brief HPL bio., is also noted. A tidy little handbound book,...

This early Jim Pitts portfolio features six drawings based upon the fictional works & characters, of H.P. Lovecraft: The Outsider, The Terrible Old Man, Night Gaunts, The Call of Cthulhu, Innsmouth, and the Music of Erich Zann.Pitts's heavily influenced by Hannes Bok, and Virgil Finlay, but his stipple is broader than the fine Finlay technique, giving the drawings a more sinister feel, but there's a bit of Hannes Bok "cheekiness" in the poses, suggesting that we're really not to take these horrors too seriously. The Portfolio is Signed by the artist. There is a booklet included with Love...

Price: $350.00

Publisher: West Warwick, R.I., Necronomicon Press: 1996

Seller ID: 905

The second biography of Howard Phillips Lovecraft, this Herculean undertaking by S.T. Joshi exhumes incredible minutae of HPL's life and times, and may be dense reading for many; you could term L. Sprague de Campt's biography as a general introduction to the man, whereas Joshi gets inside HPL's skin with a surgeon's skills.This hardbound edition of 250 copies, signed by the author, was sold out before publication. With the addition of new HPL discoveries, this biography was expanded by Joshi and published in a two-volume set by Hippocampus Press, but this single volume contains all the mea...

THE SHADOW OVER INNSMOUTH. Visionary Publishing, Everett, PA. 1936.

By: LOVECRAFT, H.P.

Price: $5,500.00

Publisher: Everett, PA., Visionary Publishing: 1936

Seller ID: 110

HPL's only book published during his lifetime. Copies were first issued without a dust-wrapper and the ensuing outcry from purchasers prompted the printer—William Crawford—to print up a dust-wrapper. The dust-wrapper exists in three states—I believe—with the Frank Utpatel illustrated wrapper being the most finished and desireable. This is a fine fresh example of the book—well as fine as you could possibly get of this inexpertly bound book—Crawford stitched the book on his mother's dining-room table—with TWO states of the dust-wrapper, including the final finished one with the ...

THE SHADOW OVER INNSMOUTH. Visionary Press, Pa., 1936. First edition. [200 bound copies]

By: LOVECRAFT, H.P.

Price: $4,500.00

Publisher: Everett, PA, Visionary Publishing Co.,: 1936

Seller ID: 708

H.P. Lovecraft's first published book. Printed by the amateur printer, William (Hillbilly Crawford, as pseudonymed by HPL)Crawford, the book is really something of a mess, even for a rookie printer. The misspellings alone are unfathomable and terribly embarrassing to HPL, and even after preparing an Errata leaf, he discovered more grammatical errors later, but by that point he had given up. However the Frank Utpatel woodcuts are superb, and the printing of a dust-wrapper did help make the book more attractive. A better than very good copy of this poorly made book in nice variant state d.j....

H.P. Lovecraft’s complete unadulterated text brought to life by Francois Baranger with twenty-seven full color paintings.

Price: $450.00

Publisher: Sauk City, Arkham House: 2008

Seller ID: 907

"Probably the oddest book ever published by Arkham House was the 100 copy hardcover edition of THE SHUNNED HOUSE," declared my late friend, Robert Weinberg—noted author, bookman and collector par excellance, in his introduction to this volume. To very briefly summarize what he meant: HPL's friend, W. Paul Cook, was to print and bind the story—THE SHUNNED HOUSE, and publish it under his, THE RECLUSE PRESS. Unfortunately Cook's wife died, he had to move himself and his printing equipment and the book was printed but never bound. Copies were passed on to HPL's young protege, Robert H. Barl...
