About This Item
(Boston: Beacon Press), 1992. Unbound. Fine. Mock-ups of the dust jacket and wrappers for the first hardcover and softcover editions. Illustration boards measuring approximately 23¼" x 12" and 15" x 13" with design elements laid down and heavily annotated glassine overlays taped along the topedge. A trifle worn from use, each of the overlays with a short tear, about fine, the hardcover mock-up possibly missing a spine element. Mock-ups for the first hardcover edition (featuring no notice of the award) and the first wrappered edition of Oliver's National Book Award-winning collection of poems. The overlays features color codes, noting and highlighting text and design elements, and the apparent approval (marked "K") for text on the rear of the jacket, featuring a blurb by Stephen Dobyns. Possibly unique.
