About This Item
Hardcover. As new. The author's second book. Hardcover in dust jacket, with virtually NO wear. Bookplate signed by the poet tipped onto the front free end-paper, The dust jacket is pristine with original price of $2.00. The binding is tight and square. The book cloth is still nappy, and not worn smooth. No scuffing to edges of boards. The cream stock is not aged or tanned. It is as if this copy was magically preserved in the state that it rolled out of the publisher's warehouse. Remarkable condition! Our photo has a slight spot by the poet's name. It is just a spot of glare from the Brodart sleeve we have protected the dust jacket with. This book ships with an upgrade to Priority Mail at no extra cost.
