Descrição:
London: The James Press, 1939. Second edition. Gray buckram w/ gilt stars; t.e.g. Large 4to. One of 412 copies (this no. 388). Inscribed in full by the author in Hollywood and dated 1964, "to Chuck and Tucker for being so patient from the crazy author...." With twenty-six decorations by Rex Whistler. The rare first edition (525 were planned, according to the author only about a sixth were bound) was suppressed by the author and the sheets were used for this second edition which was expanded. A fine copy (lacking the card slipcase) of a lovely production, scarce signed. James (1907 - 1984) was a British poet, best known for his patronage of the arts, in particular surrealist art. He spent many years in Mexico and Los Angeles. Rex Whistler (1905 - 1944) was a well-known British artist, one of the "Bright Young Things", he was killed during the Normandy Invasion. Prolific and active in many areas, he illustrated a number of books, and designed a carpet for James which is featured in James' West Dean House.

Descrição:
The James Press, London., 1932 [i.e. 1933]. First edition. Quarto. pp viii, 84, [2]. Four full-page black and white drawings, title-page and numerous headpieces and tailpieces by Rex Whistler; this is some of his best illustrative work. Cream buckram covers decorated with clusters of gilt stars. Top edge gilt. Out of a total edition of 525 numbered copies this is one of 500 printed on pure-rag machine-made paper. Scarce: according to a note which James supplies in the second edition of 1939 only a sixth of the copies of the first edition were actually bound. James was unhappy with the poem "By the Grave of Shelley" which he later rewrote. On the front pastedown is the armorial bookplate of the garden historian Alan Charles Corbet Gore.Faint ownership inscription (not Gore's) on front free endpaper. Endpapers a bit spotted. Tail of spine slightly bumped. Near fine.
