Description
New Directions, 1946. Hardback 1st Edition Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. Some edgewear, three small tears on dust jacket, one small stain on rear. Contains more than 80 of Patchen's poems. Laid in is an postcard inviting the recipient to the Ball & Chain Club Christmas Party in Iowa City on December 13, 1946. This doesn't seem to have anything to do with the poems, but since it's been residing with the book for better than 50 years, I'm leaving it in.
dust jacket : A protective and often decorative wrapper, usually made of paper which wraps around the binding of a book.
laid in : something which is included with, but not attached to the book, such as a sheet of paper.
