First edition, first printing of this scarce horror anthology. Publisher's original dark blue cloth with black titles to the spine, in dustwrapper. An excellent very near fine copy, the binding square and firm, the cloth bright and fresh with just a little wear at the spine corners. The contents with the habitual toning of the poor quality paper stock are otherwise clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the better than very good lightly rubbed and nicked dustwrapper that has several tiny chips at the tips of the darkened spine and fold corners, with little in the way of loss. Correctly priced 2/6 net to the spine. A very attractive example of one of the scarcer titles in the highly collectable "Creeps" series, especially so in this condition. A collection of 12 stories, notable for the first appearance of Frederick Cowles' "The Headless Leper", subsequently collected in his 1936 publication 'The Horror Of Abbot's Grange'.
