True first edition of this early poem, inscribed to a close friend on the northern poetry scene numbered 4 out of 26 signed copies.

Printed brown paper wrappers which are browned and faded and separated along the spine. Harrison has inscribed the poem above the title with a double-edged quotation: ‘Nor need we to the distant Indies rome; The curst Originals are nearer home. from the Preface to Tate’s Fracastorius. for Kate & Igor Tony Harrison iv/69.’ (Nahum Tate translated Fracastoro’s Syphilis or, A Poetical History of the French Disease.) The 16 page text, introduction and poem, is near fine and numbered and additionally signed to the colophon on the final page.

Catherine Lamb worked with the poet Jon Silkin editing Stand Magazine in the late 1960s and was active in the northern poetic scene over several decades. Tony Harrison, born 1937, is one our most highly regarded poets.
