FIRST EDITION, SIGNED BY FRIEND & CONTRIBUTOR. 8vo, incl. b/w plates. Original blue cloth, spine lettered in gilt. Slight bend to boards, wear and bruising to extremities, edges foxed. Signed in black pen by Pym on ffep: "V. Pym". Foxed, especially at front and end. Else, tight and tidy. In George Plank's attractive original red, white and black dust jacket: spine gently sunned, edgewear, creasing and losses to extremities. Very good/ good-only A pleasing association copy of this intimate celebration-cum-commemoration of the actor, costume designer, director and producer of the Pioneer Players, set down "all for love and nothing for reward," including contributions from Craig's partners Chris St. John and Clare Tony Atwood, her brother Edward Gordon Craig, plus, Cicely Hamilton, Vita Sackville-West and close friend, neighbour and this copy's inscriber, Violet Pym. Violet 'Vi' Pym had known Craig and St John since childhood, with "golden, happy" stretches of it spent at Smallhythe, with Ellen Terry, and at the couple's London flat. Following St John's death thirteen years later, Pym sorted the biographer's papers and shared her diaries with their mutual friend Vita Sackville-West, thus bringing to light (in VSW's words): "Christopher's horrifying document [] a love journal [and ] shattering record of her friendship with me".

Cloth. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. George Plank (illustrator). A lovely new edition of Vita Sackville-West's beloved pastoral poem, with a signed letter from the author loosely inserted. Letter on Sissinghurst letterhead loosely inserted, '27th January 1944, Dear Mrs.Dunn, Very many thanks for your letter. I quite agree with you that a very interesting book could be written on the subject you suggest, but I feel that it would need enormous research into the activities which have actually been carried out already by women and that I therefore should not be qualified to write it. It would be much more the subject for somebody like Mrs.Strachey who wrote a history of the women's movement called "The Cause". I am afraid that Mrs. Strachey has recently died. Still there must be other women who have specialised in the subject. I see you say that you were on the Letitia going to Greece and wish so much that you had introduced yourself then. How often I think of that lovely journey and wish it could be repeated. Yours Sincerely, V. Sackville-West'.In the original unclipped dustwrapper.Vita Sackville-West's popular pastoral poem, a book length narrative poem celebrating the rural landscape of the area in which Vita lived.Sackville-West, well known today for her friendship and relationship with fellow author, Virginia Woolf.

First edition, first printing. Printed by the Curwen Press, Plaistow, in an edition of 120 copies. Original paper-covered boards lettered, ruled and decorated in black and blue. Issued without dustwrapper. A very good copy, the binding square and firm, the contents clean throughout. The boards, slightly toned and dusty, are lightly rubbed to edges, corners and folds, with a small abrasion and faint blue horizontal mark to the upper portion of the front panel. Altogether, a very well preserved copy. This beautifully produced slim volume, issued in an edition of just 120 copies, belies its greater significance. Heather Cass White, in her invaluable edition and study of 'The Pangolin and Other Verse' goes as far as to claim that the volume, containing only five poems, "represents the culmination of the work [Moore] produced in the four years preceding its publication, and as such marks the high-water mark of [her] entire poetic career". The book followed 'Poems' (1921), 'Observations' (1924), and 'Selected Poems' (1935). The latter volume (an unusual undertaking for a poet near the start of her publishing career), published simultaneously in the UK and US, was put together in close collaboration with T. S. Eliot at Faber and Faber, who provided the introduction ("My conviction, for what it is worth, has remained unchanged for the last fourteen years: that Miss Moore's poems form part of the small body of durable poetry written in our time"). Having worked closely with Eliot on the arrangement of the Selected Poems, Moore again turned to Eliot as she considered her book for the novelist and poet, Bryher's (Annie Winifred Ellerman Bryher 1894-1983) Brendin Press. Founded in 1935, the press, in addition to publishing the periodical 'Life and Letters', issued a series of carefully designed limited editions of contemporary poetry. On May 31, 1935, Moore sent Eliot a manuscript, asking "[i]f these four poems were to be printed together, would you be the friend to them you were to the poems in my book, and advise me as [sic] the order in which I ought to place them?". By the time Eliot replied, agreeing to the order and suggesting that one of the poems, 'The Pangolin', should provide the book's title, Moore had composed a fifth poem, 'Jamestown' (which became 'Virginia Brittanica'), and had contacted her old friend, George Plank, to ask if he would provide illustrations. She wrote to Plank of being "follied into another effort a kind of commentary on Virginia. [.] It deals with Jamestown church-tower ruin and table tombstones, and Captain John Smith's coat of arms, (a Turk's heads [sic] and an ostrich with a horseshoe in its beak), dwarf box-edged flower beds, ivy arbors and lead statuary, saddle horses, hounds, raccoons, owls, French furniture, and so on; the pomegranate and African violet also." The final ordering of the poems as a sequence of four poems entitled 'The Old Dominion', followed by 'The Pangolin' alone, stressed what White refers to as the "decisively human focus" of the volume, a kind of coded "commentary on American history and art". (White demonstrates how later orderings and revisions of the poems diminished and defused this polemical edge.) Randall Jarrell later wrote of the title poem that it "may be her best poem; [.] certainly one of the most moving, honest, and haunting poems that anyone has written in our century." Prompted by an article in the Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History and a small bronze pangolin at the Museum of Modern Art, it is one the poet's great animal poems. Linda Leavell notes that "whereas earlier poems idealized the animal's dignity against human greed and shortsightedness, here the pangolin is shown to resemble humans in its postures and its daily toil." Plank's finely detailed illustrations, like latter-day emblems, beautifully complement the poems.
