A propos de cet article

Publication: London, The Fortune Press, 1940 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 63. Condition Report: Very Good. The dark blue cloth boards remain remarkably tight, firm, and clean, showing virtually no shelf-wear. Gilt lettering along the spine remains pleasingly bright and unoxidised. Text block appears securely bound and well-aligned. Original dust jacket exhibits moderate age-toning, dust-soiling, and some surface scuffing commensurate with its age. Slight creasing, a minor closed tear on the front panel, and general rubbing to the jacket's extremities and spine head; however, it remains largely intact without significant loss, presenting highly well as an authentic survivor of the period. Catalogue Note: True first edition of Leonard Clark's debut poetry collection. Typical of R. A. Caton's eccentric but culturally significant Fortune Press productions, the rear panel and inner flaps of the dust jacket are heavily adorned with publisher's advertisements. Most notably, the front flap features a prominent listing for the seminal The New Apocalypse anthology, highlighting contributors such as Dylan Thomas. The volume is unillustrated. Finding a complete 1940 first edition from this publisher that still retains its notoriously fragile original dust jacket in such intact condition is a notable scarcity on the open market, making it an excellent acquisition for collectors of mid-20th-century British poetry and small-press imprints. Published at the dawn of the Second World War, Poems marks the inaugural collection from Leonard Clark, an esteemed English anthologist, poet, and Inspector of Schools. Deeply rooted in a profound reverence for the natural world and the undulating English landscape, Clark's early verses reflect a quietly enduring lyricism. His work provides a gentle, reflective, and poignant counterpoint to the global turbulence of the era in which it was printed, showcasing the early voice of a man who would dedicate his life to literature and education.…
