[j. d. worthington]

Sadly, not much that's really rare anymore -- most of my collection disappeared with my marriage, I'm afraid -- though I did have most of the Arkham editions from Marginalia onward, and several issues of WT that had original publications (such as the one that had "The Quest of Iranon", "The Festival", "The Haunter of the Dark", and so on. I've not seen the February 1928 issue that had "Call of Cthulhu", though I have seen the issue that had "The Whisperer in Darkness" with that infamous illustration that gave away the denouement....

And, unfortunately, I'm not in touch with people who would know the fair market prices on these things any longer. Perhaps someone else here will be able to help; I do know, though, that since the days when I bought them, the price of WT with "the Big Three" (HPL, CAS, REH) has skyrocketed; so you're not looking at anything cheap. If I come across anything that might help, I'll pass it along....

Actually, I suppose I might have some things considered rare, as I have a fair number of early Necronomicon Press items, such as that facsimile reprinting of Sonia's The Rainbow, and the illustrated version of The Challenge from Beyond, the Uncollected Prose and Poetry volumes and HPL in "The Eyrie", etc....
