About This Item
8vo, blue cloth with red titles, 34pp. First edition with 1952 copyright date and pasted photo plate of Thomas to title page. Boards slightly curled inwards from a resulting water incursion, thus pages show a light ripple. Unclipped dust jacket (2.00) shows mild rubbing to panels and some loss to front panel at lower corner. Firmly bound with clean text. This volume contains the first publication of Thomas's most famous poem "Do Not Go Gentle Into that Good Night", along with five other poems. A handsome copy less defects, preserved in mylar.
