THIS BOOK CONTAINS OVER 30 DIFFERENT POEMS BY POE, SOME VERY WELL-KNOWN AND OTHER RARE
An exceptionally scarce UK edition of Poe's poems that was printed and bound over a century ago, "even before the first world war of 1914." You will find a lovely collection of some of Poe's most monumental poems and rarer titles within its pages. I have searched for another one of these with this cover and could not find any; needless to say, it's a rare bird indeed. This is documented in the google books archive as the 1st ever edition from this publishing house—a beautiful and well-kept printing from the early 1900s.
The overall condition of this book is very good for being printed well over a century ago. It has some average age and shelf wear but is well preserved. It is comprised of a total of 129 pages.
