(Continued from Poe 1969, Pt. 16)

THE GOLD BUG and other TALES of MYSTERY
Gallery of Illustrations  /  Part 2

Here's an unusual one.  From the "Library Thing" website:

Series description

The books in this series are large (11.5x8.5) with large print. They have wide margins and have many annotations with illustrations in those margins to help explain the times, items and other things mentioned in the stories. They have a "Backward" at the end with a writeup about the author and his/her writing. Most stories are unabridged, or, as in The Jungle Book, only include some of the stories, so that the ones included can remain unabridged. Illustrations are black and white. Published by Classic Press, Incorporated-Santa Rosa, California
