About the Heritage Press Edition in Slipcase, Dec 15 2008
By Theseus "theseus" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is about the Heritage Press edition of Frankenstein, illustrated by Everett Henry.The first version of this book with the Henry illustrations was published in 1934, in a run of 1500 copies. Now rather pricey, it was and remains one of the Limited Editions Club's most desirable books.
At some point, but at least by 1962, Heritage press decided to repackage the book. It is lavender. A pretty, pastel lavender on linen-finished cloth interwoven with white. Decorative pigment leaf elements designed by Henry appear on the cover and spine in an odd, saturated violet (including a creepy hand, and a building.)
Responding to color is a personal thing. At first, I found it bizarre that this great gothic tale would be lavender. Now I wouldn't want it any other way.
In a midnight blue, lightly-textured slipcase. 257 pp with over 5 full page color illustrations, illustrations at the chapter headings, and black and white incidental illustrations scattered through the text.
Introduction by Edmund Pearson.
