Between the Covers

Hardcover. First edition. Octavo. Small, attractive engraved bookplate of a noted collector on the front pastedown, and a small, light stain on the rear board, still about fine in a bright, just about fine dustwrapper with light edgewear, mostly at the crown, in a moderately soiled and stained publisher's printed cardboard box with small tears at some corners. Inscribed by Teasdale to the well-known and prolific Irish poet and novelist: "For Katharine Tynan, with the admiration of Sara Teasdale Filsinger. October 1917. 1 West 81st St., New York City." Tynan was closely associated with the writer William Butler Yeats. *Love Songs* was the first book to win the Pulitzer Prize for poetry. A superior copy of an important book with a notable association.
