    Enlarged edition. Octavo, pp. [1-6] 7-271 [272: blank], original blue-green cloth, spine panel stamped in black. New edition of THE PURPLE SAPPHIRE (1921) with four additional stories. "Collection of stories supposedly 'selected from the unofficial records of the University of Cosmopoli' by its 'sometime registrar' -- the mock introduction is dated 1952 . The stories (not all supernatural) are satirical, mocking the gentility and earnestness of the academic school of supernatural writing developed by M. R. James . The ironic wit is not to everyone's taste, but these are among the best satirical weird tales." - Barron (ed), Horror Literature 3-28. Ashley, Who's Who in Horror and Fantasy Fiction, pp. 92-3.
