Concord, Ewert, 1988. A limited edition that was in preparation for private distribution as a 1988 holiday greeting when Carver died, on August 2, 1988. The edition was completed but, unlike the earlier projects, there was no signed issue of it. There were 136 copies done, of which 36 were bound in wrappers. This is a full set of prepublication trial versions: four versions, prepared on July 28, 1988, with a note from the publisher identifying the different states and noting that five sets were "pulled" -- i.e. created -- of the trial versions. Fine. [#012112] $450

All books are first printings of first editions or first American editions unless otherwise noted.
