196534215New York: Grove Press 1965. First printing of the first Grove edition the first edition printed in America and the first edition for general circulation.

The slipcase is a little rubbed and mellowed and has a small abrasion on the printed label. QUITE SCARCE FIRST PRINTING OF ALL THREE TITLES in Miller's fictionalized account of his six-years living in Brooklyn the period where he fell for his second wife June. It also describes his struggles to become a writer and the events leading up to his departure for Paris in 1928.<br> All three books in the trilogy were initially banned in the United States as pornographic thus there was no American publication prior to the U.S. Supreme Court's 1964 decision that the also-banned Tropic of Cancer was a work of literature and therefore should no longer be banned. In spite of no longer being accused of peddling porn Miller had other concerns about an American edition. He believed that his first wife Beatrice who is portrayed in the books as "Maude" would be able to sue. He relented however and in 1965 THE ROSY CRUCIFIXION volumes were holding the top spots along with two other recently unbanned works on the Publishers Weekly bestseller list. Grove Press hardcover
