Grave Sirs

Vancouver, The Private Press of Robert Reid & Takao Tanabe, 1962. 1962, First edition. Softcover , Narrow quarto. The poet's FIRST BOOK, in the first issue binding. Black card covers lettered in white and light olive. [36] pp, unpaged. Tiny chips to tips of bit sunned spine; book a bit wavy at top half, but not damp stained; separation at front inner hinge but text block not loose in the binding; VG clean and unworn otherwise, no owner names. Edition of 300 copies. The late CanLit specialist William Hoffer believed that fewer than 100 copies were bound in this first issue cover of smooth paper with cover lettering from large wooden type, that fewer than 100 were issued in a second issue binding of grainy texture paper with the cover lettering printed by offset, and that the remaining copies were destroyed in a flood in Robert Reid's office at McGill in the late 1960s. The very scarce first book of an important Canadian poet, and a very nice job of book design and printing.
