Description

Stoker (Bram) Dracula, first Dutch edition, half-title, title with newspaper clipping tipped onto verso, lightly browned throughout, a little heavier at points, gutter neatly repaired to half-title, title and final f., original red cloth, lettering and central medallion in gilt, neatly recased with repairs to spine ends and joints, gilt lettering faded at spine ends, a few faint marks, slight shelf-lean, new endpapers, 8vo, Amsterdam, Van Holkema & Warendorf, [1928].

⁂ A rare early edition of Dracula, the red cloth with gilt medallion seemingly a more expensive alternative to the off-white cloth, with apparently also mustard and green variants. Aside from the off-white variant sold in these rooms in March 2023, we can trace no example of this edition at auction or on WorldCat.
