Octavo. viii, 300pp + 32pp publisher's advertisements. With a run of only 1,000 copies, Prince Otto did not gain much traction in the popular consciousness, whatever celebrity Stevenson had otherwise achieved. Still a worthy title, and given due aesthetic and commercial diligence by the publisher. Bound in attractive floral-patterned cloth over boards with titling in gilt at spine. Front hinge cracking, some rubbing along extremities, else a very good copy. Bookplate of former owner to front pastedown. Housed in slipcase. (Beinecke 329)
