KING LOG

First edition, first printing. Signed by the author. Publisher's original brown cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in dustwrapper featuring an illustration from a fifteenth century edition of Aesop. A very good copy, the binding square and firm, the cloth bright and fresh. The contents, toned and with some spotting to margins and closed text block edge, are otherwise clean and without previous owner's inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the very lightly rubbed and creased dustwrapper that is faded to the spine and lightly spotted to the rear panel. Not price-clipped (21s to the lower front flap).

Signed and dated 15.11.68 by Geoffrey Hill in blue ink on the front free endpaper. A collection of 18 poems and a short essay.
