"To my dearest and best friend, R.A.C.," which is a jumbled anagram, dedicated to either R.A. Gregory, Wells's friend who later became the editor of NATURE between 1919 and 1939, or for Wells's wife, Amy Catherine Robbins.
Found inside this edition is a 6 page advertising pamphlet promoting ERNEST THOMPSON SETON's illustrated books who was also a contributor of NATURE magazine.
A fine example & very uncommon, published the day before The Time Machine.
