Buch Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. 1st Edition. "Tennyson" by Humbert Wolfe was published by Faber and Faber in their "Poets on the Poets" series. This is the third volume in the series, being the First Edition, issued in September 1930. IT is hardcover format, and retains the decorative dust-jacket (which replicates the design on the book's front cover. An added bit of interest : this copy still had the publisher's printed paper insert, with a brief analysis of poetry's place in the literary continuum, and a promotion on the reverse side for books by W. H. Auden, P. P. Graves, and Joseph Gordon Macleod. ************************************* SERIES : Poets on the Poets (No. 3) / TITLE : Tennyson / AUTHOR : Humbert Wolfe (1885 - 1940) / IMPRINT : Faber and Faber / PLACE : London / DATE : (September 1930) / EDITION : First Edition / STATUS : Out of Print - OP / DETAILS : Trade Hardcover, No. 3 in a series; 60 pages; 5" x 7 1/2"; paper-covered boards and spine (pale orange paper with a decorative design in green featuring an exotic urn spewing smoke); the top of the text-block edges is dyed dark gray; the fore-edge and bottom edge are each untrimmed; a dust-jacket replicates the cover's design, but with the decorative design mostly in black - only the subject title and author are printed in green. On the back panel of the dust-jacket is the publisher's promotional text for the series (# 1 Sackville-West on Andrew Marvell; # 2 T. S. Eliot on Dante; # 3 Wolfe on Tennyson.

We've included the leaflet in one of our pictures. / SPECIAL ATTRIBUTES : Still included is the publisher's single paper sheet (3 3/4" x 5 7/8", printed black on white) with text on and promotions for other books. CONDITION . BOOK : GOOD PLUS - JACKET : GOOD ONLY . This is a previously owned book which displays signs of handling and use, but which remains clean and serviceable, with the following particulars noted :: EXTERIOR -- There is a decided curvature to the front board; the spine is slightly creased, and the spine extremities are compressed, with the head displaying small loss; boards display only mild surface rub, however there is a small discoloration on the rear board which seems to be production-related; bottom edges of the boards a moderately shelf-rubbed; there are a few spots where the top edge gray dye has extended just slightly onto the leaves (a production effect) / BINDING -- Still fairly solid with no detached or loose leaves / INTERIOR -- The end-papers have transfer toning marking the edges of the jacket's flaps. There is also a touch of foxing. The original owner's signature is neatly written in ink at the top of the front free end-paper, and there is a small 4-digit number inked on the front paste-down. Else the interior is clean and free of marking. No writing, no marginalia, no underlining. The inserted leaflet has a tiny corner crease, else is clean and fresh. / DUST-JACKET --Intact and holding. Considerable chipping, small tears, and small loss about the edges; spine panel joint folds are rubbed, with small surface loss; jacket panes have modest surface rub, and display adequately. the spine panel is slightly darkened and has ragged extremities; the reverse side of the jacket has a couple of small cellophane tape pieces with attendant discoloration (these are quite old); All four corners of the flaps are clipped; the whole is housed in a clear, mylar cover to ward off further wear.
