About This Item
London: Fortune Press 1927, a numbered copy from a limited edition of 800. (Vellum) Very good in good to very good dust jacket. The title "KISSES" is in gilt on the spine. The pages are embellished with red patterns. The endpapers and pages are lightly soiled around the margins, the red patterned dust jacket is lightly soiled and has some edgewear, and the vellum covers are a bit splayed, as is to be expected in a dry climate. Translated by T. Stanley. (Poetry).
