Description:
Scorpion Press, 1960. 1st Edition. Softcover. VG. 1st Edition. 14.7 x 22.1 cm blue card wraps with red titles to the front, 39 (1)pp. Signed and inscribed by the author to friend and fellow poet Terence Hards. A very good copy with some toning to the edges of the front and back cover and on the spine. Internally, there is a correction to the title of the first poem that seems to have been made by the author as it is in the same pen as her signature. There are also one or two spots and a crease to one page corner, the result of a manufacturing error in the cutting of that page. All in all an excellent association copy.
