“MUCH HAVE I TRAVELL’D IN THE REALMS OF GOLD…”
KEATS, John. Poems, Odes, Sonnets. Mount Vernon: Peter Pauper Press, no date [circa 1937]. Slim octavo, contemporary full green levant morocco gilt rebacked with original spine laid down, raised bands, brown morocco spine labels.
Lovely Peter Pauper Press edition of the best short poems of Keats, handsomely bound in full morocco by the Doves Bindery.
Includes Keats’ immortal “Ode to a Nightingale,” “Ode on a Grecian Urn,” “On First Looking into Chapman’s Homer,” “On Seeing the Elgin Marbles,” and many more. The Peter Pauper Press was the creation of Peter and Edna Beilenson of Mount Vernon, NY. Their Walpole Printing Office took commissions from Random House, New Directions and the Limited Editions Club, but also issued titles under their Peter Pauper imprint, as with this collection.
A near-fine copy, finely bound.
