With an illustration by Kathleen Gray Schallock. First separate edition. 16mo., in landscape format. Original plain wrappers in original card envelope. One of 250 copies signed with initials by the poet, and by the printer. This copy is number 215. Printed at the Penstemon Press for Charles Seluzicki, of Salem, Oregon.
An elegant bibliophilic production of Larkin's great reflection on death. The decision to sign with initials only was a financial one, Larkin accepting a lower fee for less wrist-work.
