BOHEMIAN CLUB, BYNNER, WITTER , WILLIAM MAXWELL, HILDEGARDE FLANNER AND GENEVIEVE TAGGARD

W.B. In California a Tribute

Berkeley, CA: Bohemian Club, 1919. 1st Edition; 1st Printing. Paperback. Limited to 400 copies printed for private circulation. This book has illustrated cardstock covers and a sewn and glued spine. The spine ends, corners and edges have rubbing, edge wear, small edge tears, and toning. There is toning to the spine and top edges of the book covers and a small chip to the top front spine joint. The text pages are clean and bright. There is a previous owner's inked gift notation on the front free page. This is a tribute to Witter Bynner. "He had a short spell in academia in 1918–1919 at the University of California, Berkeley. He was hired to teach Oral English to the Students' Army Training Corps as a form of conscientious objector alternative service, and was invited to stay on in the English department after World War I ended to teach poetry. His students included several who became published poets of some note, such as Stanton A. Coblentz, Hildegarde Flanner, Idella Purnell, and Genevieve Taggard.". Very Good .

BYNNER, Witter (1881-1968)

Autograph Note Signed

This American poet published his first collection ("An Ode to Harvard and Other Poems") in 1907, acting as editor at "McClure's Magazine" briefly and taking part in the famed Spectra literary hoax in 1916; in 1922 he relocated to Santa Fe and became a mainstay of the rich literary scene there, publishing poetry collections until 1960. ANS, 1p, 5¼" X 7 3/4", New York, NY, 1917 September 26. Addressed to Ms. Stearne. Good plus. Inoffensive mounting traces on verso cause tiny (¼") paper loss at upper right; several small paper losses along original vertical center fold (not affecting text). On pale grey pictorial letterhead of Hotel St. Francis in San Francisco, the poet pens a brief, cryptic but cordial note in thick black ink: "A long while after and in a rattling hurry -- but with appreciative thanks and good wishes!" and signs nicely beneath. An attractive example despite noted flaws. .
