Miskatonic Missives (Vol. 1) - Book 1

A Letter to Duane

Each issue of Miskatonic Missives contains a reprint of one of H.P. Lovecraft's most interesting letters, presented alongside related archival material such as contemporary short stories, art, and maps, as well as original art and new scholarship.

Each volume is also packaged with a set of exclusive extras—replicas of related historical documents and ephemera such as photos, maps, ticket stubs, postcards, news clippings, and diary pages.

This issue explores a letter sent from H.P. Lovecraft to Duane W. Rimel in November 1934. The book is printed in full color on premium quality paper, Smythe sewn, and bound with a hardcover.

Vol. I, No. 1 includes the following facsimile items:

  • A period postcard depicting a view of College Street in Providence, Rhode Island;
  • The wrapper from Owhyhee Idaho Spud, a candy (sweet) with an interesting history;
  • Handwritten notes for Lovecraft's The Shadow Out of Time, in his own hand
  • A beautiful letterpress reproduction of Duane Rimel's linocut portrait of H.P. Lovecraft.
