About This Item
Boston: Richard G. Badger, The Gorham Press, 1903. First Edition. Near Fine. First edition of Willa Cather's first book of poetry and her first published book. Signed by Cather in inscribed "Twenty years later!" on the front free endpaper. Bound in original drab grey boards with paper title label to upper board and spine. Near Fine with light toning to covers, subtle glue repair to crown, toning to spine and slight chipping to title label there. Still a very bright example of this otherwise fragile production, signed by the author.
