2.    BURROUGHS, Edgar Rice. THE OUTLAW OF TORN.  Grosset &  Dunlap , New York City. 1928. Reprint.  Small 8vo, pp. 298, ads. Burrough's second book, preceding TARZAN OF THE APES. Written in the fall of 1911, and re-written in 1912, it is set during England's War of the Roses and relates the adventures of a outlaw much like Robin Hood. The book was not published until 1927, by A. C. McClurg & Co., who re-printed it in the same year. This G&D edition followed in 1928 (erroneously described on the copyright page as "First Reprinting, March 1927"), and shows the McClurg slug. The title and author's name are printed in black on the (red) front board. Contains no illustrations, 298 pages, and 12 pages of ads. Bold ink signature of John H. McGraw on front endpaper. Encased in original dust jacket (not a reproduction) showing sword fight between two characters in front of maiden (what else?) on horseback. The jacket is somewhat age-toned overall, but the colours on the front panel are still bright. There are no significant pieces missing from the jacket, but it is creased (esp. at folds) and crinkled (esp. on spine). An extensive list of G&D titles is printed on the back of the jacket. The book itself is a bit bumped at the corners, with minor soiling and rubbing overall. The hinges are tight, although the binding is a bit shaken. There is a trace of a damp stain to the bottom of the rear board but this has not affected either the dust jacket, rep, or the text. Overall, the book is still in good condition, and the dust jacket in about good minus condition. Porges p. 787; Adkins p. 13. (028752) $185 Cdn/$125 US

3.    BURROUGHS, Edgar Rice. TARZAN OF THE APES. With the “silhouette" frontispiece. Grosset & Dunlap, New York City. Small 8vo, pp. 392. Written between December, 1911, and May, 1912, TARZAN was first published in All-Story Magazine in October, 1912. It was not until 1914 that A. C. McClurg (ACM) first brought it out in book form and the rest, as they say, is history. This is the G&D reprint which bears the original ACM copyright information on the copyright page (i.e., published June, 1914), although the G&D edition was, in fact, published in 1927. Bound in red cloth, with black lettering to front board and spine. The original G&D dust jacket, with the wrap-around art work, is present, although we received it in three pieces, and have restored it as best we can. Both the inside flaps are missing, and it is very creased, and edge-worn. Consider it in poor condition, at best, but at least it is present. The book is a trifle worn at the corners of the boards, and shows a bit of light soiling overall. The hinges are tight and the endpapers are unmarked, although both the eps and the text show a bit of age-toning: about good plus overall. Porges p. 788; Adkins p. 22-23. (028753) $150 Cdn/$100 US
