A fine, bright copy of the first edition in book form of arguably the most famous detective novel. The first issue with misprint "you" for "your" on page 13. The Hound of the Baskervilles was the first Holmes adventure since the publication of "The Final Problem" in which the detective disappears over the Reichenbach Falls. This literary return was described by Doyle as the "inevitable relapse after repentance." Green & Gibson A26.

Octavo (183 x 115m). Frontispiece and 15 plates, illustrated by Sidney Paget. Original pictorial cloth stamped in gilt and black (slightest fading and lean to spine). Provenance: Christopher Clark Guest (bookplate).
