New York: New Directions, 1967. First Edition. Near Fine/Near Fine. Signed limited first edition. One of a limited 110 unnumbered copies signed by Ezra Pound. Printed by Andrew Hoyem and Robert Grabhorn in San Francisco, and bound in publisher's tan linen cloth over blue paper-covered boards with errata slip tipped in at rear; in publisher's unprinted white dust jacket. Near Fine, with lean to spine, covers faintly marked. In a Near Fine dust jacket, lightly soiled and with light edge wear. An early long poem of Pound's, and his first attempt to write poetry using world history, and adding opinions of his own. Originally intended to be published in the 1911 first edition of Canzoni, Pound deemed it too serious, and removed it during the proof stage. It was not until 1967 when the poem was finally published, first in an Australian poetry magazine, then here for the first time in book format in a limitation of 110 copies. There is no equivalent trade edition. Gallup A90.

New York: Harrison Smith and Robert Haas, 1933. Very good plus.. Signed limited first edition of the last collection of poems published within Faulkner's lifetime. Though the 54 poems of A GREEN BOUGH show the heavy imprint of Swinburne, Eliot and Housman, the traces of Faulkner are there beneath them, with the author's characteristic themes and preoccupations showing through his consciously elevated poetic manner: the measured lines of poem VI ("Man comes, man goes, and leaves behind / The bleaching bones that bore his lust") are the product of the same hand that wrote in SOLDIERS' PAY, "Sex and death: the front door and the back door of the world." 8.5'' x 6.25''. Original tan cloth with black lettering. Two wood engravings by Ward mounted on front board. Frontispiece engraving by Ward. 67, [3] pages. Edition of 360 copies of which 350 were for sale, this copy no. 87. Signed by Faulkner at colophon. Bookplate to front paste-down. Light wear and soil to boards; spine toned; light rippling to…

The first cinema, the Asakusa Denikikan, was opened in Tokyo in 1903 and within 13 years 300 cinemas had sprung up throughout the country... (The author) focuses on the historical development of Japanese film, illustrated by a series of typical Japanese film posters. She details an industry and an art form shaped by the competing and merging forces of traditional culture and of economic and technological innovation."
