Leaves of Grass

Handsome collector's edition published exclusively by the Franklin Library, illustrated throughout with duotone vintage photos of American scenes from Whitman's era. The text is the Ninth, or "Deathbed" edition of 1892, the last presided over by Whitman, containing his injunctions to maintain it as the final form of the book. In 536 acid-free pages. Hardcover octavo (6.25" x 9.25") is bound in deep green leather with gilt decoration to front & lettering to spine & gilt-edging to all outside page edges. Flawless condition: appears never opened! Only flaw is very mild rubbing to the gilt along the top. Our photos depict the Exact book you will receive, never "stock" images of books we don't actually have!
