RIPOSTES OF EZRA POUND. Whereto are Appended the Complete Poetical Works of T. E. Hulme. With Prefatory Note.

First edition thus, fourth issue overall, with first edition sheets and cancel title page. Publisher's original card wrappers with a Vorticist design by Dorothy Shakespear in black to the front cover, in original glassine dustwrapper. Fore-edge and bottom edge untrimmed. A very good copy indeed, the binding square and firm with some faint spotting to the covers and a little dust-soiling to the bottom edge of the front cover. The contents, with a contemporary previous owner's name in pencil to the head of the title page are otherwise clean and bright throughout. Complete with the scarce original glassine wrapper which is a little chipped and torn. An excellent example.

The first and only issue of Pound's collection of Imagist poetry with the Vorticist cover designed by his wife, the artist Dorothy Shakespear (the fourth issue of the collection overall). Only 400 copies were printed. (Gallup A8d).
