About This Item
Paris: The Black Sun Press, 1930. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. One of 50 copies on Japanese Vellum, signed by Hart Crane. Contents completely fine, a very fresh copy. Covers generally bright and clean (see photos), but the spine tips are dulled where the glassine is also worn. There is a professionally repaired thin paper-split down the spine, now manifesting as a crease (see photo). During the repair, thin paper reinforcement was added underneath, so that the book can now be laid open flat -- and actually enjoyed. The book is also now supported by a thick mylar wrap, which makes it easier to handle. A modernist highspot at a very attractive price.
