Crow Wakes.

£450 · Offered by Maggs Bros Ltd

Number 56 of 88 copies numbered and signed by the author from a stated edition of 200 (Sagar and Tabor. A28). The bibliographers report that the publisher actually printed 230 copies: “… a hundred each going to poet and printer plus 30 review or academic copies. None of mine was signed.” This copy has the opening poem printed as ‘Bones’ instead of ‘Crow Wakes’, as stated on the contents page. Hughes has corrected this in his holograph. A fine copy.
