Notes:

This was a 1978 edition published in the USA by Arno Press. Arno was a reprint house that published primarily mystery, science fiction, and fantasy editions, and this title is part of Arno's Lost Race and Adult Fantasy Series. These were plainly bound but sturdy hardbacks aimed primarily at libraries. This edition is a photographic reprint of Styr-B1 (A), the 1926 Boni edition. It even includes a monochrome reproduction of the Boni title page in addition to the Arno Press title shown above. The reprint of the text (256 pp.) is followed by a single page catalog of the series (verso blank) and two blank leaves. This edition was issued without a dust jacket.
