Considered by many to be one of America's 'first gentleman of letters' the impact of Mark Twain should not be overlooked by the serious collector. Through his career he not only penned the great Huckleberry Finn, but also contributed a large number of short stories, adventure tales, anthologies and even verse.
A large part of Mark Twain's success as an author owes itself to the early decisions made on his behalf by a New York Rare Book Publisher, Leon and Brothers in 1885, placing no less that 13 of Mark Twain's volumes on their must-have collectible catalog list. This in turn led to a greater interest to be paid to the young author, and more of his works being printed.
For the modern collector much of Mark Twain's first edition works will be pricey to acquire, but their desirability to the marketplace only makes them a valuable addition to any collection. Another interesting feature of Mark Twain's works is that, due to their popularity at the time, there are quite a number of limited-number print runs of his shorter tales (such as Captain Stormfield's Visit to Heaven or The Jumping Frog) that can be found.
When collecting Mark Twain, it is best to remember to pay attention to a few key details:
Many of the later print runs of his shorter tales were facsimile editions, including book-plate illustrations and a printed autograph of the man himself. Pay close attention to any copies professing to contain Twain's signature, as they are more than likely to be one of these later facsimile editions.
Also, pay careful attention to the date on the title and not the copyright page, as they will more than likely be different! As ever, the early first editions of will command a high price!
