From The Bucknell University Fine Editions: A Series in Contemporary Poetry edited by John Wheatcroft. A fine copy in the publisher's pinkish boards with purple cloth spine. Per the colophon: "This book was set in 14 point Spectrum and printed on mould-made Frankfurt laid paper with a Vandercook No.4 press. Hand-set by Juanita Bishop Erin F. Labbie and Colleen Shannon. Original illustrations by Florence Putterman were rendered into linoleum engravings by Colleen Shannon. The edition was designed and printed by Barnard Taylor.

Laid-in is the publisher's prospectus as well as a typed letter SIGNED by publisher Barnard Taylor addressed to personal friends who were subscribers of the press.

1930Z1731New York:: Charles Scribner's Sons 1930. 1930. 8vo. xii 160 pp. Frontis. port. of Osborn plates index. Burgundy cloth gilt-stamped cover and spine titles dust-jacket; jacket worn and stained with some tape repair. Very good. Dr. George R. Minot's copy with the Author's presentation inscription: "To Dr. George R. Minot; In memory of Charles Sedgwick Minot & Dr. George R. Minot- with the best wishes of Henry Fairfield Osborn December 18th 1930 Congratulations on the well-deserved award." Minot was awarded the 1934 Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine which he shared with William P. Murphy and George H. Whipple. The reference to the "award" in the inscription was not to the Noble Prize which came to Minot in 1934. Also in the inscription the use of the phrase "In memory of" certainly applied to Charles Sedgwick Minot who died in 1914 but not to George since he died in 1955. Osborn himself died in 1935. Two earlier editions of the bibliography had been published the first for the period 1877-1910 and the second for the period 1911-1918. Both were compiled by Harriet Ernestine Ripley and continued thereafter by Janette May Lucas. This bibliography is identified in the text as the third edition but it is the first edition of the complete bibliography. A special copy in every respect.
