Library Addition: Neil Gaiman’s Words of Fire

Tuesday, July 4th, 2023

Arte Editions are the people that did Gaiman’s The Case of Death and Honey. This actually had a smaller run.

Gaiman, Neil. Words of Fire. Arte Editions, 2022 (actually 2023). First edition trade paperback original (with self-flaps), #276 of 300 signed, numbered copies, a Fine copy. Poetry collection. There were two different hardback editions (the Portfolio Edition and the Roman edition), both of which were sold out by the time I heard about it. Now out of print from the publisher. I still have one copy left available through Lame Excuse Books.

Note: The streaks in the image are actually marbling in the cover-stock.

Library Addition: Neil Gaiman’s The Case of Death and Honey

Monday, June 13th, 2022

Another limited edition Neil Gaiman book (this one of Sherlockian interest):

Gaiman, Neil (Gary Gianni, illustrator). The Case of Death and Honey. Arte Editions, 2022. First edition hardback, #254 of 500 numbered copies signed by Gianni (plus an additional 70 publisher’s copies), a Fine copy in a Fine slipcase, sans dust jacket, as issued. A very attractive book, stamped in gold and black on full red cloth binding, black and red printing, numerous black and white (and one color) illustrations from Gianni. A Sherlock Holmes story from Gaiman. There were numbered and lettered editions signed by Gaiman in different bindings that were already sold out by the time I found out about this book. Bought from the publisher at a thin discount. Note: The slipcase was extra, and is not included in every copy of this edition.

I will have a very few copies available for sale (with the slipcases) in the next Lame Excuse Books catalog, currently in progress.
