Item description from seller

100pp. No.19/180 copies. Signed on the title page as well as signed and numbered on the colophon. Poems (some near concrete), one tipped in print, a deliberately torn page, another with a hole in it. There are two collaborative sonnets composed by Stoker & Elster taking alternate lines. The certainly pseudonymous (being the protagonist of Cowper Powys' Ducdame) Rook Ashover's pieces were, according to the colophon, previously published by the Ingrowing Toenail Press in Rugby & are presumably by Stoker himself. Covers fairly soiled.
