8vo, pp. 80. Original printed card wrappers. Some offsetting to preliminaries caused by newspaper clippings once held in the book, slight darkening to spine (which is uncreased), small ownership signature to ffep.. A better than very good copy.
First edition, SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR. This issue precedes the hardbound edition.
This, Heaney's third full collection, is strangely scarce -- especially signed.
