Inv hndbk p30 column 2 first full Para - 'eend' instead of 'end'. Is 'desarve' intended? Lovecraft's rendering of dialect is challenging to copyedit!

Investigator's Handbook, p. 85: In the Occultist, it should be "one other skill" not "one other skills".

Keeper's Rulebook, p. 16: The "Read Me--how to use this book" sidebar is a direct copy/paste from 6th edition, and as such references sections that don't exist anymore: the actual "Call of Cthulhu" story was dropped, and the book is no longer divided up into The Rules Section and The Keepers' Section. This sidebar would probably benefit from a fresh re-write rather than editing out the 6e references.

Also, what happened to Attract Fish? :mrgreen:

Investigators Handbook, page 138: The character's weapons skills are listed as:

.45 Pistol 40% (20/8), damage by weapon type
12g Shotgun 70% (35/14), damage by weapon type

Instead, this should be:

Handgun 40% (20/8), damage by weapon type
Rifle/Shotgun 70% (35/14), damage by weapon type

Page 178 Main Rulebook point number 5 on right hand column. No page number is given when listing a page number.

This happens on page 181 too and may be this way throughout book.
NOT Steve ;)

Investigator's Handbook, p. 100: In the 1920s Art tag, it's Béla Bartók.

In the fourth paragraph under Art and Craft there's a specialism again.

In the right hand column, many of the paragraphs are ragged right rather than justified.

Keeper's Rulebook, Page 42, Table 11: Cash and Assets: In the Modern section, the assets for a Rich character should be CR x 400,000, not CR x 2000.
