Beschreibung

Octavo, 179pp. A fine, fresh, unread copy in the publisher's light green cloth, titled in gilt, with top edge gilt. None of the "usual" sunning to the boards. Most pages unopened. In the scarce dust jacket, very near fine, with a few tiny droplet stains, one closed tear at the crown, and some shallow creases along the top edge. Scarce in any jacket, this volume is genuinely rare in such an attractive state. This volume contains Fitzgerald's first poetry contributions in print, and his first appearance in print overall but for his slightly earlier lyrical contributions to the Princeton musicals "Fie! Fie! Fie!," "The Evil Eye," and "Safety First." The poems contained herein--"Marching Streets," "The Pope at Confession," and "My First Love"--are all attributed to "T. Scott Fitzgerald." An easy mistake for a typesetter to make, since the writer had, at that point, no reputation to speak of. Rare in this condition; an important item in any Fitzgerald collection. Bruccoli B1.
