Cream paper covers with muted green illustration of books and trees in a storm, black titles, 12mo, 350 pages plus a note from the publisher, beautiful endpapers; slight warp to text block, toning to spine. An installment of The Boni Paper Books series. The Boni Paper Books series was the brain child of Charles and Albert Boni, and an experiment in the new field of American paperback book publishing and the brand-new field of subscription mail order book clubs. The club launched in September of 1929 with The Bridge of San Luis Rey being the first title. The series lasted for 16 issues, but was not able to weather the financial strain of the great depression and ceased publishing in 1930. Along the way, the brothers created the spin-off paperback series Bonibooks, which reprinted many of the Paper Books titles as well as a number of other titles. Bonibooks were not sold by subscription.

A gypsy and her daughter beg for shelter on a stormy night when the signs are are clear that Death will ride. They are let in; and when presently the dread sounds are heard, the gypsy hypnotizes her daughter and sends the girl’s spirit out on the moor to watch and report. Though she knew nothing about this poem, the novelist Romer Wilson, who had second sight, told me that in three years I would write a successful novel, and that the germ of it was already in my head.
