Description:
West Burke, VT: Janus Press, 1976. First Edition. One of 150 copies, unsigned, as issued. Orange wrappers with silver moon decoration, printed in two colors with double-page cut-out endpapers; 8vo. "...designed, handset in Monotype Times Roman, printed, torn, cut, and bound by Claire Van Vliet at the Janus Press on and of Kozu, Fabriano and Canson paper. The endpapers are the topiary gardens of Levens Hall, Westmorland, England. This is copy no 85." Back cover almost imperceptibly sunned along the front edge, else fine, unopened. Claire Van Vliet's work has been heavily collected for over 50 years, well before she won an early MacArthur Foundation "genius" grant in 1989, with many institutions subscribing. This title particularly elusive in the trade.
