THE HAUNTED PHOTOGRAPH WHENCE AND WHITHER A CASE IN DIPLOMACY THE AFTERGLOW .
1970138074Freeport New York: Books for Libraries Press 1970. Octavo cloth. Later edition. Text offset from the 1911 Century edition. Collects the four stories named in the title. The second and third are about African-Americans. The first is an ambiguously supernatural tale about a photo of a hotel that burned killing the heroine's late husband; the photo may or may not show him carrying on with another woman. The story bears some affinity to M. R. James's "The Mezzotint" 1904 but whether this is a case of a magical object or a deranged observer the story would seem to fall into the general category of the fantastic. Bleiler 1948 p. 261. Smith American Fiction 1900-1925 S-1092. A fine copy without dust jacket as issued. #138074 Books for Libraries Press unknown books
