The Hound of the Baskervilles

This is a “Special Limited Edition” produced by Grosset & Dunlap Publishers under authority from McClure, Phillips & Co., between late 1902 and 1906. The book has an exceptionally bright red cloth binding with an inset photograph of actor William Gillette, sporting his characteristic pipe and dressing gown. Its dust jacket is identical to the McClure jackets except for brown lettering instead of red. Apart from a new Grosset & Dunlap title page, the textblock was clearly printed from the McClure plates.
