Complete Cthulhu Mythos Tales

1st Printing, with John Coulthart 2004 poster, "Cthulhu Rising", laid in. New, and completely pristine. See scans and description. New York: Barnes & Noble, Inc., 2016 (note: individual stories had early 20th century copyrights; poster, a 2004 copyright; cover art, a 2015 copyright; endpaper art, a 1988 copyright; compilation and introduction, a 2013 copyright by Fall River). H.P. Lovecraft - The Complete Cthulhu Mythos Tales. B&N Decorative Leatherbound Edition, First Edition Thus, First Printing. Tipped in poster is John Coulthart's famous 2004 poster, "Cthulhu Rising". Introduction by S.T. Joshi. A stunning form of presentation of the all-separately-published stories in the Cthulhu Mythos of the peerless H.P. Lovecraft - called "The Man Who Can Scare Stephen King", and of whom King said, "I think it is beyond doubt that H. P. Lovecraft has yet to be surpassed as the twentieth century's greatest practitioner of the classic horror tale." Lovecraft's innate sense of horror - he instilled his native, inescapable sense of dread in his fiction - is best, and most famously, embodied in the Cthulhu Mythos chain of stories. Octavo, black background leather boards with illustrations and decorations in green and gilt on both covers and spine; spine ribbed; All Edges Gilt; endpapers illustrated (also by Coulthart); satin page-marker ribbon; xiii + 593 pp.+ 1 pp. About the Author. An extraordinarily handsome - and dread-inducing itself - decorative edition, the equal of any in Barnes and Noble's series of such editions. New, and flawless. Removed from publisher's shrink wrap only for scanning and description here; that disassembled shrinkwrap with gold sticker and book's own rear sticker will accompany the book. See all scans. First Edition Thus, and First Printing. Note: because the poster is neatly folded and tipped-in, the image of that here is borrowed. Ships in a new, sturdy, protective box, of course; not a bag. LT9

I bought this for my daughter. She has always had a fascination with the Cthulhu mythos...that may be my fault. But this book is beautiful and of course the content has always been amazing.

I absolute love the way this book's cover looks like, and the inside illustration along the cover is absolutely mesmerizing. Also love the print setting and the texture of the pages. All in all, a very handsome book to hold and read, and also an exciting edition to any book collection. Received the book in perfect condition as well, so that's also a plus. 10/10 would recommend to order from this seller.

This is a great collection of Lovecraft's work in a beautiful cover. If you want a bunch of Lovecraft's stories in one place this is a great choice.
