First edition. Fine in near fine dustwrapper with light wear at the edges. Signed by Nemerov and with the ownership signature of Elbert Lenrow, a professor at the New School who taught Nemerov, along with Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg. He later penned a book about his friendship with Kerouac and was a dedicatee of *The Collected Poems of Howard Nemerov*. A nice association.
