No slipcase on my copy. With the exception of the Lovecraft Retrospection, none of my Centipede copies have slipcases.

I'm surprised that it looks like I'm lucky to have a slipcase for Dramas... :-)
Michael, I have an almost complete set of Centipede books and a lot have slipcases. All my Master of Weird Tales series, Book of the New Sun series, Dracula, Artist inspired by Stephen King, Two Handed Engine, Nosferatu (signed) and Chimera I. I know Frankenstein have one too but I don't have this book, as some other art books.

I've checked with Jerad at Centipede and it looks like I'm lucky to have a slipcase. He said that there is no slipcase and never was. But mine is a perfect fit and I don't see any other of my Centipede books to fit in it.

Hi again,

Jerad told me to not ask him for the slipcase since there were none for this book. He just don't understand why I have one and to add to the mystery, the cloth used on the slipcase (other than black) is the same as the one on the back of the book. So they both match perfectly together.

My copy of Mrs Midnight arrived this week. Like all books from Tartarus Press the volume looks wonderful. Before starting the book, I'd like to finish Dramas from the Depths. Even though I still have lots of RO's stories waiting on my shelves to be read, I can say that he easily is one of my favourite writers of the supernatural.

Mr. Oliver's story "Flowers of the Sea" in DF Lewis' The Horror Anthology of Horror Anthologies was, in my opinion, the strongest of the bunch.

My complete review is here: http://www.adamscantwell.blogspot.co...of-horror.html

(This review comes utterly without slipcase.)

As does the HA of HA itself! :)
I think F of the S is the strongest of all RO stories I've read and I've read most of his published stories. And that's saying something! But I am probably biased.
