    • "A Banquo Book" (front cover and t.p. versover)
    • Some of the stories were originally published anonymously; their authors have been investigated by scholars with some positive and some uncertain or disputed conclusions. See the collection record.
    • Data originally from Locus #234 (June 1980) and WorldCat (OCLC, below) which are now redundant--all confirmed or corrected--except publication month from Locus. Story titles and page numbers are reported in The Supernatural Index (TSI), which confirms much else. "An interesting selection of stories (not all fantastic) by the [19c] pre-Raphaelite poets and artists." --p911 viewed at Google Books
    • Google Books provides snippet views only, adequate for the title page and the author names as credited. In particular:
      • Title page layout supports the long subtitle, fashioned with three hyphens, as used here--rather than subtitle "Short Stories"; credited as by The Hyphenated ... (see OCLC 993608259).
      • Author names entered here are those listed on the title page, in the Contents list, and at the heads of the stories--TSI and WorldCat use local versions of some author names.
      Google snippet views are not adequate, except occasionally and in part, to read what the Introduction says about any story or writer.
