248 x 157 mm. (9 3/4 x 6 1/4"). 1 p.l., 101, [1] pp., [1] leaf. Publisher's tan buckram, spine printed in black and gilt. In the original black paper slipcase (in excellent condition).

It famously contains the poem composed for John F. Kennedy on the occasion of his inauguration--though Frost actually recited from memory another poem, as the sun that day interfered with his ability to read from his manuscript. Among the many copies of this collection available, this one is especially desirable because of its fine condition.…
