Mokelume Hill, CA: Health Research, 1976. Facsimile Edition. Softcover. Octavo. x + 82pp. Black spiral bound green wrappers with black lettering on upper cover, b&w sigils, fold out. A facsimile reprint of the first American edition (Occult Publishing House, circa 1910) of Crowley's edition of the famous grimoire of talismanic magic, the Lemegeton of Solomon. This copy from the collection of Clive Harper with his discreet book-label neatly tipped in at the rear. Harper is well-known as the bibliographer of Austin Osman Spare, for updating the Aleister Crowley bibliography in the 2011 Teitan Press collection of Gerald Yorke's writings, and as someone who has lent his expertise to numerous other publications. A cheaply produced facsimile reprint with somewhat poor print quality, but otherwise appears unread - thus a clean near Fine copy. Item #65822
