A facsimile of Aleister Crowleys own vellum-bound volume with annotations in his hand housed at the Warburg Institute University of London, containing copious notes, drawings of spirits and magical formulae both from Crowleys vellum copy and from a camels-hair binding copy owned by his friend and disciple J.F.C. Fuller. – Reproduced as a large format folio onto oyster wove paper, sewn with dark maroon ribbon, maroon endleaves onto viridian gree endpapers marbled with red and gold, matching red and green headbands, a homage to the 1904 first edition with its green camels hair binding and red printed wrapper. Each copy hand bound quarter leather in the finest maroon polished goatskin displaying its natural grain, the sides of the book are bound in black library buckram with the title label printed in red onto parchment paper. Limited to 72 copies, each numbered after one of the spirits of Solomons Brazen Vessel enumerated in the book [Andras, the Sixty-third Spirit, so this is Book number 63.], and containing a hand drawn goatskin parchment talisman bearing the appropriate sigil of the demon, its name and office together with the motto of the Hell Fire Club inscribed around it by the binder. – Ein sehr gutes Exemplar.
