[CROWLEY, Aleister]. White Stains. [London: Leonard Smithers], 1898. 4o. Original black cloth (corners barely exposed, minor cloth loss at head and tail of spine). LIMITED EDITION, no. 9 of 100 copies only. This is perhaps the most difficult of the legendary occultist's books to acquire. Given the anonymous publication, small limitation and the obscene and/or erotic nature of the poems and their omnisexual content, surviving copies are few and far between on the market. No copies at auction in over 20 years. RARE.
