Following this are nearly 100 pages of illustrations, including both published works and never seen before illustrations (twenty-five color; seventy-nine black-and-white). Includes several book and dust-wrapper illustrations, including those for Aleister Crowley's Moonchild, Les Fleurs du Mal, and several works published by William Godwin, Denis Archer, and Fortune Press. Includes an index for the essay and a list of illustrations.
