Description
Two distinctive photocopies of "The Lady Buried Alive," The Casket (September 1827): 340-342. Poe used a story from this article for his tale "The Premature Burial." See note 5 in Mabbott's edition of the tale. Each set of photocopies has a distinct set of marginalia, though they both appear to be by the same person.
