Princeton University Press, 1919. 1st. Cloth. Collectible; Very Good/Good. The 1919 1st appearance in book form by F. Scott Fitzgerald, whose 3 poems ("Marching Streets", "The Pope at Confession" and "My First Love") were --famously-- attributed to "T." Scott Fitzgerald. Solid and VG (with bright gilt-lettering at the front panel and spine) in a clean, G+ example of the fragile dustjacket, with a 1 3/4" loss at the spine crown, light chipping as well at the spine base and panel edges --and an inconspicuous, even split at the front hinge, separating the front panel and front flap fold from the rest of the dj. A piece of plastic covering however nicely masks this and renders the entire jacket quite presentable and attractive. 12mo, 179 pgs.
