About this Item

FIRST EDITION, THIRD PRINTING. Signed note "Seamus Heaney Manchester 1973" tipped in to the title verso. Unlike the first and second printings (not issues by general trade consent) which carry the sun symbol on their covers (the logo of the 1965 Belfast Festival), the third printing bears the herald with drum and trumpet device as used for the 1966 Festival. Brandes and Durkan noted a number of variations in copies of the third printing, including varying dimensions, paper types, and even printer's details on the lower wrapper, as well as differences in the sequence of poems, without assigning priority to any of these states. Octavo. Stapled pamphlet in green card covers which also serve as title. A near fine copy with just a hint of browning to extremities and a patch of light rubbing to upper wrapper over letter S in "Poems", housed in a green solander box titled in gilt to lid. [Brandes & Durkan A1c].
