Here’s a Kickstarter project that was a long time in coming that finally shipped earlier this year. <\/p>\n

  • Lovecraft, H. P. Miskatonic Missives<\/b>. Helios House, 2022 (actually 2023). First edition hardback, one of 521 Limited Collector’s Edition sets (given the number of kickstarter backers), containing three volumes, plus a fake<\/i> box that’s actually a traycase to contain the ephemera extras, all Fine copies, sans dust jacket, as issued, in a Fine slipcase.
    \n

    Each volume contains a reprint of one of H.P. Lovecraft’s most interesting letters, presented alongside related archival material such as contemporary short stories, art, maps, etc., as well as original art and new scholarship. <\/p>\n

    Each volume is also packaged with a set of exclusive extras\u2014replicas of related contemporary materials such as photos, maps, ticket stubs, postcards, news clippings, and diary pages. The Collector’s set packages all of these extras in a custom box which nests in the slipcase alongside the three books. Each Limited Edition Collector’s set is supplied with a Certificate of Ownership signed by editors Andrew Leman and Sean Branney of the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society, and a collectible enamel pin.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

  • Lovecraft, H. P. (Sean Branney and Andrew Lman, editors and annotators). The Spirit of Revision: Lovecraft’s Letters to Zeila Brown Reed Bishop<\/b>. Helios House, 2022. Second Edition hardback (I believe the first edition was trade paperback only), a Fine copy, sans dust jacket, as issued. Bought with the above as an add-in.\n

    It’s an impressive assemblage, and one legions of Lovecraft fans will be kicking themselves over not picking up in years to come. <\/p>\n

    Total price for both with shipping was $203.50.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
