New York: Reynal & Hitchcock, 1947. A very good copy in a somewhat worn jacket, with chips at corners, and a loss affecting text along spine panel. 8vo. 55 pages. Original tan cloth; printed dust jacket. Provenance: William Targ, American author, editor, and publisher. FIRST EDITION of Wilbur's first book of poetry, published in an edition of 750 copies. PRESENTATION COPY, inscribed to William Targ on the title: "For William Targ / With pleasant recollections of our long-ago meeting / Richard Wilbur Cummington Mass. 1971." And with a fine autograph letter signed ("Richard Wilbur") laid in, to the writer and editor William Targ, 12 October n.y. [but before 1964 when Targ left the firm]. One page, 4to, folded. Wilbur writes to Targ at World Publishing Co. saying that he has reached "a negative conclusion about the Lincoln book. Because it is not quite close enough to my existing techniques and concerns, I'd have to force it and it wouldn't turn out well." Wilbur goes on to suggest some possible alternatives, including Winfield Towley Scott, Anthony Hecht "one of the best younger poets in the country," and Donald Hall. A very fine letter, revealing Wilbur's thoughts on some of his contemporaries.

Cleveland, 1966. Faint toning. 11 x 8.5 inches. Title leaf of translucent paper with an original drawing by levy. Mimeographed. 12 pages, on rectos only. Stapled wrappers, front cover with original ink scarab drawing by the author mounted. One of 33 copies. A scarce publication by one of levy's unnamed presses, being Edouard Naville's translation of 'The Litany of Ra.' The large original drawing of a scarab on the cover is reflective of levy's interest in the symbol, which he used as the title of his collection 'Scarab Poems.' Though neither his name, nor that of one of his presses, appears in the text, this has all the hallmarks of levy's important mimeographed books, and appears less frequently on the market than others.

Description:
Trumansburg, NY: Out of Step Press. Fine with no dust jacket. 2016. Numbered Edition; First Printing. Pamphlet. The author's non-linear poem about the billeting of soldiers in civilian homes in wartime. Copy 89 of a limited edition of 250. Folded into the form of a letter, the work was letterpress printed in wraps of handmade "combat paper" made from military uniforms. The author says: "Some time ago-maybe a year, maybe two? I had a conversation with some of my Combat Paper brothers (well, the kids call them their combat paper uncles, so it follows…) that led to me writing the poem "Quartering."
