TATE, Allen

Mr. Pope and Other Poems

New York: Minton, Balch & Company, 1928. First edition. 12mo. Black cloth, with printed paper spine and cover labels; printed dustjacket; 52pp. A fresh, Fine copy, free of soil or wear. In the scarce original dustwrapper, unclipped (priced $2.00 at base of front flap), remarkably fresh and clean with just a hint of toning at spine panel and a touch of rubbing at crown; very Near Fine.

Quite pretty copy of Tate's first solely authored collection of poems, a landmark debut which includes one of the most celebrated poems of the first half of the 20th century: "Ode To The Confederate Dead." A high spot of Southern literature, an important first book in unnaturally fine condition.
