These were a two book lot from Heritage Auctions:<\/p>\n

  • Brennan, Joseph Payne. Nine Horrors and a Dream<\/b>. Arkham House, 1958. First edition hardback, a Fine copy in a Fine Mylar-protected dust jacket. Short story collection, and a good one. Jones & Newman, Horror 100 Best Books<\/b> 56. Derleth, Thirty Years of Arkham House<\/b> 53. Joshi, Sixty Years of Arkham House<\/b> 53. Jaffrey, Horrors and Unpleasantries<\/b> 53. Nielsen, Arkham House Books: A Collector’s Guide<\/b> 56. Bleiler, The Guide to Supernatural Fiction<\/b> 273. Barron, Horror Literature: A Reader’s Guide<\/b> 4-54. Replaces a slightly less attractive copy.\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

  • Brennan, Joseph Payne. Stories of Darkness and Dread<\/b>. Arkham House, 1973. First edition hardback, #74 of 100 copies signed and numbered by the author, a Fine copy in a Fine Mylar-protected dust jacket. Joshi, Sixty Years of Arkham House<\/b> 123. Jaffrey, Horrors and Unpleasantries<\/b> 126. Nielsen, Arkham House Books: A Collector’s Guide<\/b> 129. Strangely, none of the Arkham House references mention this post-publication “limited” edition, one of a handful of Arkhams done this way (Greg Bear’s The Wind from a Burning Woman<\/b> and Lucius Shepard’s The Ends of the Earth<\/b> are two others). Supplements an unsigned copy.\n
