A Merritt & Hannes Bok Book (1946)

These are some very rare images of a special press book of an unfinished manuscript from the estate of A. Merritt. The brief excerpt indicates that Mrs. Merritt allowed Hannes Bok to not only illustrate the unfinished manuscript, but finish the story. The illustrations are excellent.
