The Man Upstairs and Other Stories
London, Methuen & Co. Ltd., 1914 (first edition).
Octavo, [viii], 316, 31 (advertisements) pages.
Russet cloth stamped in gilt and blind; a couple of trifling spots of foxing to a few early leaves; a few leaves with light corner creases; a near-fine copy.
A superb copy of this rare early collection of short stories, notoriously difficult to find in such pleasing condition due to the materials used in its production. This copy has 'Colonial Library' stamped in tiny purple letters on the title and half-title pages (but it conforms in every way to the true first edition). McIlvaine A17a.1; Jasen 18.
