Layton, Irving. [Ezra Pound]

The Cold Green Element. Presentation Copy Inscribed to Ezra Pound

Montreal, Contact Press, 1955. 1st Edition. Hardcover. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Signed by Author. Superb Association Copy of the First Edition of this early Layton Contact Press title. Inscribed to Ezra Pound: "For Ezra Pound, / And all best Wishes, / Irving Layton / 2 April 1955". 8vo, pp. [60]. Black cloth backed illustrated boards designed by Betty Sutherland. As usual, the spine label is not present. A very good example showing some general use. The importance of this copy can not be underestimated as Layton, arguably Canada's earliest Modernist Poet had much respect for Pound, the poet & founder of Modernism. A solid thesis could be developed around this copy. .
