About This Item
New York & Avenel, NJ: Gramercy Books (Random House / Avenel), 1992. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Very Near Fine book in a very Near Fine jacket - both very much so. See all scans and description. New York & Avenel, NJ: Gramercy Books (Random House / Avenel), 1992. Sixth Printing. 'Walt Whitman - Selected Poems', with introduction by Christopher Moore. Octavo, illustrated jacket, white fine buckram boards with gilt imprinting on spine, 224 pp. A bright, handsome Near Fine book with four thin lines of underscore at pages 11 and 12 of the preface, and which is immaculately as new otherwise in a very, very Near Fine jacket which does show a faint bar of sunning toward the top of the front panel. See all scans. Almost a kind of eye-candy on the shelf or cocktail table, but this is a serious selection from Whitman, of course. Ships in a new, study, protective box - not a bag. L202
