Erstausgabe
First edition. First edition. Photogravure frontispiece portrait, with tissue guard. ix, 33 pp. 1 vols. Small 4to. In the RARE Dust Jacket. First edition of Owen's posthumously published first book. One of the landmarks of Twentieth Century poetry and unquestionably the finest collection of poems to come out of the Great War, including "Strange Meeting", "Anthem For Doomed Youth", "Dulce Et Decorum Est" and "Futility". Owen was killed at the Front a week before the Armistice in November 1918. As Owen's Preface, found among his papers after his death, so poignantly observes: "This book is not about heroes. English Poetry is not yet fit to speak of them. Nor is it about deeds or lands, nor anything about glory, honour, dominion or power, except War. Above all, this book is not concerned with Poetry. The subject of it is War, and the pity of War. The Poetry is in the pity.". Keynes, B2; Connolly 100, 36; Hayward, 337 Red cloth, with printed paper spine label. Usual paste offset to flyleaves. Fine copy in the original dust jacket, spine panel faintly toned with a small nail chip at center, and smaller loss at foot (not touching imprint). An outstanding copy of a book that is almost invariably worn, and almost never seen in jacket Photogravure frontispiece portrait, with tissue guard. ix, 33 pp. 1 vols. Small 4to.

Buch Erstausgabe
First edition, first impression, one of 1000 copies; 4to (22 x 17.5 cm); portrait frontispiece, page stock just a little toned as usual, partial offsetting to the endpapers; publisher's red cloth, paper title label to spine, with the dust jacket, couple of light marks to the upper board but a notably fresh copy in the dust jacket which has had a little internal repair and some professional work on two or three small chips. Only 1000 copies of this monumental collection were printed, with a second impression coming out the following year. And it is probably worth noting that jackets of the second impression are very similar to those on the first. The key therefore is to note the condition of the spine of the book itself. Crucially to be correct it must be entirely unfaded as in this example. Owen is, if not universally, then certainly very widely regarded as the best of all the Great War poets. He famously died in the very last days of the war having not published a book. Sassoon knew how good these poems were, and ensured they saw publication.

First edition. 8vo. Rebound in modern red morocco, gilt titles to spine. A very good copy indeed, with some light spotting. Frontispiece photogravure of Owen. The author's first collection of poems, published following his death in action on the Sambre Canal in 1918, just a week before Armistice. The book is regarded as containing some of the finest and certainly the most resonant poetry to come out of the Great War. "Owen. had the genius to come through the rage and frustration or even the dearth of feeling of many war poets and so to write the first understanding poems about the shell-shocked, about gas, about the enemy" (Cyril Connolly - The Modern Movement).

Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good +. First edition thus. Copy number 9 (IX) of 35, bound in the publisher's half-leather binding with an extra proof on Japanese vellum bound in and signed by the artist, Ben Shahn. A Fine, unworn copy in a Very Good+ publisher's slipcase, with only trivial cracking at a few of the joints. Fine in Very Good + dust jacket. Wilfred Owen, a British soldier and poet, is best remembered for his verse about World War I. Killed in battle in 1918, most of Owen's poetry was published posthumously. Owen, along with his mentor Siegfried Sassoon, departed from the wartime verse of earlier poets who celebrated the patriotic glories of conflict. Owen and Sassoon, instead, documented the terror, destruction, and horrors of modern warfare. This edition is published by the Gehenna Press, founded by Leonard Baskin in 1942. Thirteen Poems by Wilfred Owen marks the first collaboration between Baskin and Richard Warren of The Metcalf Printing and Publishing Company. Drawings by Ben Shahn complement this superbly produced edition. Fine in Very Good + dust jacket.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Poems by Wilfred Owen; with an introduction by Siegfried Sassoon published by Chatto & Windus, London, 1920,1st edition. red cloth, spine title label, original portrait frontispiece. Wilfred Owen, who wrote some of the best British poetry on World War I, composed nearly all of his poems in slightly over a year, from August 1917 to September 1918. In November 1918 he was killed in action at the age of 25, one week before the Armistice. Only five poems were published in his lifetime three in the Nation and two that appeared anonymously in the Hydra, a journal he edited in 1917 when he was a patient at Craiglockhart War Hospital in Edinburgh. Shortly after his death, seven more of his poems appeared in the 1919 volume of Edith Sitwell's annual anthology, Wheels: a volume dedicated to his memory, and in 1919 and 1920 seven other poems appeared in periodicals. Almost all of Owen s poems, therefore, appeared posthumously: importantly in the bestselling collection Poems (1920), edited by Siegfried Sassoon with the assistance of Edith Sitwell, contains 23 poems (Poetry Foundation) "some cloth fading, marks, spine chipping top and bottom , a little foxing end pages, previous owners name "James L Mclane jr-", browning title page,a few minor marks and spots" good for age and such a RARE volume, additional photos available upon request.
