CAB Comment––It’s always wonderful to have some old Poe books around on a coffee or end table, not only for conversation, inspiration, or nostalgic atmosphere, but also for simply reading a macabre tale on a dark and stormy night. This particular Poe was used for educational purposes and is “Inscribed to the he Poe And Lowell Literary Societies of the Baltimore Polytechnic Institute”, and edited by J. Montgomery Gambrill, Asst. Prof. of History in Teachers College, Colombia University. I love the handwritten name inscription in the front and the later student notes (see pictures). Just a really neat book that’s had a real life.

BOOK PHOTOS: All book pictures are taken in bright white LED photo light, and thus brightness, contrast, and colors of books may appear more intense in photos than in person in the warmer incandescent lamp light of your home. In simpler terms, your new vintage books will fit right in with your cozy abode.
Please remember: All books offered by Texas POEtrope are in need of a loving new home, and (other than C.A. Broadstone autographed works) have had previous owners, resulting in relative wear. Thus, some books possess more interesting scars telling of their journey through the world, and life, than others. Please study book pictures closely to be sure the book(s) shown are for you. Every book with a dust jacket has been carefully placed in a BroDart protective archival cover. All sales are final.
