The Heart of the Master.
San Francisco, CA: [ OTO ] Stellar Visions, 1987. First Edition Thus. Large format softcover. Quarto ( 8.5 x 11 inches), (iv) + 40pp (iipp.). Flexible clear plastic front cover over black titled and illustrated card cover sheet, dark blue flexible rear cover sheet, all secured together with a 2 part plastic back strip. Hand-colored endsheets, b&w diagrams. An expanded format edition of "The Heart of the Master," Crowley's visionary reflections on Thelema and the mystics who preceded it. The verso of the title page has a series of quotes from the Grady McMurtry versus the Marcelo Motta court case of 1985, whilst the final leaf has a statement about the O.T.O. on the recto (and a blank verso). As far as we can determine this was the first US edition of the work. Obviously the print-run was small as copies are very seldom seen. Light shelf rubbing to covers, edges lightly chafed and a bit darkened, else a tight, unmarked VG+ copy. Scarce. Item #69110
