About This Item
[New York]: Nadja, 1986.. Quarto. Cloth, paper label. Some small smudges in the upper spine corner of the lower board, otherwise about fine. First edition, clothbound issue. One of an unknown number of unnumbered copies bound thus, in addition to 26 lettered copies, and 100 numbered, and some unnumbered copies, in wrappers, all signed by the author and the artist. This was the poet's own copy, inscribed to him by the artist ("Thanks De") on the colophon, with an original pencil drawing (with colored highlights) of two figures, seemingly the poet and the artist, on the colophon. Snodgrass's library blindstamp appears in the upper forecorner of the free endsheet.
