Title: Free Unions. Editor Simon Watson Taylor. (original first and only issue of this post-war English periodical on surrelism)
Description: London, publisher: Simon Watson Taylor ; 1946, small in-4°, (28,5 cm), 48 pp, with errata-slip. The original cover is a design by Conroy Maddox. This copy contains a manuscript ex-dono (on the inside of the front cover) by the publisher (Simon Taylor), to his French translator Jean-Louis Bédouin. In this copy Simon neatly corrects two translation errors made in the George Sabrier's article on Eliot's Little Gidding poem. E.g. Blake's line : ''He who desires but does not act engenders pestilence'' becomes : '' He who desires but acts not breeds pestilence''. Fine association copy of a rare issue. .
