CRAWLEY, Rayburn. Chattering Gods
CRAWLEY, Rayburn. Chattering Gods. New York and London: Harper and Brothers. 1931. 8vo. First edition. Publisher’s red cloth lettered in black to the spine and upper board, in the striking period dust jacket which goes uncredited. A very good book, the cloth a little pushed and rubbed at spine tips and corners, small stain rear board top corner, the binding tight and square. Textblock top edge dust-marked, the contents mostly fine, with contemporary ink ownership inscription to front endpaper of a San Francisco collector. The dust jacket unclipped ($2.00) with several chips to extremities, some closed tears and creases, but still an attractive copy.
Crawley was a pseudonym of US authors Laura Spencer Portor Pope and Dorothy Giles. A Lost World novel following a young girl imprisoned by a mad scientist and a mysterious yellow ape, a sequel of sorts to ‘The Valley of Creeping Men’ (1930).
