The Blue Sky (signed limited)
Phoenix Bookshop, New York, 1969. 1st Edition. Soft cover. One of 100 copies numbered and signed by Snyder. This copy is number 19. There were also 26 signed lettered copies not for sale. Approximately 5 x 6" in blue wraps, 24 pages, string bound, with a white jacket that has the image of a Nevada petroglyph on its cover. The contents are the second section (following Three Worlds, Three Realms, Six Roads) to be published in chapbook from Snyder's eventual opus Mountains and Rivers Without End, which interestingly the copyright page states "will ultimately be published by New Directions in approximately 4 or 5 years." In fact that masterwork wasn't published in its entirety for another 27 years (by Counterpoint in 1996). Printed at the Ferguson Press in Cambridge, MA. A scarce item in fine condition. Fine / Fine. Item #ABE-1663956312088
