The present copy appeared in the Quinn Sale catalogue with the following note: "[Yeats] has never acknowledged the authorship of this article. It was written as a member of a magical society in London, and when there was a split in the society, this copy was bought by Mr. Quinn from Miss Florence Farr, the actress-author, also a member of the society, against Mr. Yeats' rather strenuous opposition. No copy of this brochure has ever been offered at public sale, and it is one of the rarest of Yeats' writings in existence."
注意事项
No VAT will be charged on the hammer price, but VAT at 17.5% will be added to the buyer's premium which is invoiced on a VAT inclusive basis.
