Hardcover. Condition: As New. Limited Edition. This private production was for only two hundred copies. The book was printed and bound under the Ted Hughes imprint of Poet&Printer. What makes this copy unique is - presumably - because Ted Hughes mistakenly signed it on the copyright page, where it is numbered 29, and ALSO signed… and numbered on the front endpaper, but with another two numbers, 47 and 88. A slightly mysterious and fascinating error. The book has twelve superb poems, beautifully printed and bound in japon backed patterned red boards, with titles to upper board and spine in black; a vey fine copy and one of Hughes nicest collections.
