Английская Википедия:Dark of the Moon: Poems of Fantasy and the Macabre
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox bookDark of the Moon: Poems of Fantasy and the Macabre is a poetry anthology edited by August Derleth and published in 1947 by Arkham House in an edition of 2,634 copies.[1] It is a pioneering[2] anthology of odd poetry from the Middle Ages to the present, arranged chronologically.[3]
A publishing curiosity is that this book had two different dustjackets – the only Arkham House book to have this feature. Both states of the jacket feature a background photograph of a mountain, although on the two jackets the image is reversed as compared with each other. The first-state jacket has lettering in green, whereas the second state jacket is lettered in orange and white. The jacket with the green lettering is the first state of the dustjacket (pictured right). Its lettering was rendered by Wisconsin artist Frank Utpatel. This state is the rarer of the two jackets, since a large number of the Utpatel jackets were destroyed by silverfish during storage.
The second state dust jacket, which features orange and white lettering, was redesigned by Gary Gore, who from 1959 on, became increasingly more active in working with August Derleth on Arkham House covers.[4]
