H. P. Blavatsky: An Outline of Her Life.

London: The Lotus Journal, 1909. First Edition. Hardcover. Small octavo. 60pp, iv adverts. Original blue cloth white title to spine and front cover, b&w frontispiece of Madame Blavatsky, b&w illustrations. This copy from the PERSONAL LIBRARY of Israel Regardie, with his Golden Dawn themed bookplate on front pastedown. The first edition of this brief look at the life and life work of Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (1831-91), co-founder of The Theosophical Society and author of the foundation texts of that society, including the massive "Secret Doctrine" and "Isis Unveiled". A well used copy with moderate overall shelf wear, all edges and points bruised and chafed, spine darkened and spine text dulled, page edges darkened and pages evenly browned - but unmarked. First and least pages unevenly darkened, endpapers cracked at front inner hinge but hinge holding firm. Still a solid and unmarked better-than VG copy with an interesting provenance. Item #66575
