[Mt. Vernon, NY]: The Golden Eagle Press, [1949]. First edition. Apparently a variant binding, with rose-colored rather than the blue-gray paper over boards noted in entry A22 of George James Firmage's "E. E. Cummings: a bibliography." Unpaginated (~ 20pp.). Printed in rose brown ink and illustrated with drawings by Klee, Picasso, Modigliani, Kurt Roesch, and Cummings.
The first separate printing of Cumming's poem "Puella Mea," originally published in book form in "Tulips and Chimneys."Lightly sunned to board extremities, spine mildly cocked, else very good in a good jacket, weakened along hinges and with a 1/3" chip at base of spine and small chips at top of rear panel and corners.
