777. Vel Prolegomena Symbolica Ad Systemam Sceptico-Mysticae Viae Explicandae, Fundamentum Hieroglyphicum Sanctissimorum Scientiae Summae.
London: Walter Scott Publishing, 1909. First Edition. Hardcover, Octavo, x [+ ii - tipped-in errata] + 54pp + [iv. pp adverts]. Original red buckram, bevelled edges. Complete with the rare Tree of Life diagram with additional errata on the recto and with the detachable subscription form for "The Equinox" bound in at the rear of the volume. Edition limited to 500 copies. The first edition of Crowley's often reprinted Qabalistic compendium: one of the classics of twentieth century occultism. Yorke 57. Copies of "777" with the ORIGINAL Tree of Life diagram / Additional errata sheet present are increasingly uncommon (being loosely inserted it was often lost). The boards of this copy are a little discolored and the corners bruised and a little rubbed, with the bottom point of the front board just rubbed through. The front free endpaper (first blank page) has been neatly excised, but this is barely noticable as - unusually - there is a second blank before the half-title page. Overall a tight, clean copy in better condition that it is usually encountered (no dust-jacket issued). Item #70998
