Original light brown decorative cloth designed and lettered in red and dark brown. Title page printed in red & black. Small vignette illustrations as chapter headings. 184pp. plus 4pp. publishers ads at rear. Binding signed: BS. Light wear to edges, some small bumps, a very nice, clean copy.

A very limited reprint was done in 2006 by Dead Letter in their Literary Vampire Series. This original edition is rare.
