Sylvia PLATH / Fiesta Melons Limited Signed 1st Edition 1971

Author: PLATH, Sylvia Title: Fiesta Melons Publication: Exeter: The Rougemont Press, 1971 Edition: Limited Edition. A crisp, clean copy, very near fine, with the spine gently cocked and some trivial rubbing to the spine ends. In a fine dust jacket. This is number 36 of 150 limited copies; of those 150, the first 75 (including this one) are SIGNED by Hughes on the Introduction page. These signed copies seem to be scarcer in commerce.

A beautiful production, pairing poems which Plath had written in the 1950s with illustrations from her own drawings. As a small, independent bookseller in Cleveland, Ohio, I deal in general used, rare, and antiquarian books, autographs, manuscripts, pamphlets, and personal and family papers in all subjects.

My family has been in the antiquarian book business since 1971. We take pride in our business and make every attempt to describe each item in our inventory accurately according to the highest standards of the rare book trade.
