Author: STRAUBENMULLER, Johann Title: Herbstrosen: Gesammelte Gedichte
Description: New York, E. Steiger & Co, 1889. Hardcover. Small 8vo. Brown cloth with gilt lettering and black pictorial stamping. viii, 198pp, (2pp ads). All edges gilt. Tissue-guarded frontispiece, decorative endpapers. Very good. Faintest of edgewear. A wonderfully tight and handsome first edition, entirely in German, of what translates as "Autumn Roses: Collected Poems," by this German-born American writer, poet and agitator (1814-97) whose socialist leanings got him arrested and kicked out of Germany in 1852. A lovely copy -- and rather uncommon. .
