Miskatonic Missives, Vol. I (Collector's Edition)
The Collector’s Edition contains all three Miskatonic Missives issues from Volume I, packaged in a custom slipcase with all of their extra items. Each issue contains a reprint of one of H.P. Lovecraft's most interesting letters, presented alongside related archival material such as contemporary short stories, art, and maps, as well as original art and new scholarship. The books are printed in full colour on premium quality paper, Smythe sewn, and bound with a hardcover.
Each book is also packaged with a set of exclusive extras—replicas of related historical documents and ephemera such as photos, maps, ticket stubs, postcards, news clippings, and diary pages. The Collector's Edition packages these extras in a custom faux-book box which nests in the slipcase alongside the three books. Each Collector’s Edition is also supplied with three ex libris bookplates modelled after Lovecraft’s own, and the first 1000 sold will come with a Certificate of Ownership signed by editors Andrew Leman and Sean Branney of the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society.
