First Edition
Condition: Very Good. Boston: Roberts Bros., 1891-96. First Series is a fifth printing, with "1891" on title page and "Fourth Edition" on copyright page. Second Series conforms to Meyerson's fourth or fifth printing with "1892" on title page and "Fourth Edition" to copyright page. Third Series a first printing with 1896 to title page, no edition statement to copyright page, and "Roberts Bros" to spine. Three octavo volumes. Volume I bound in gray cloth; volumes II and III bound in olive-green, with beveled edges, gilt lettering and decoration; top edges gilt; red silk ribbon detached but present to volume I. Housed in custom-made slipcase. Boards worn at extremities with brief exposure and minor fraying; corners bumped; spines rather dulled; volume II scuffed and spotted with discrete but amateur tape mending to bottom half of rear joint. Hinges to volume I starting but bindings holding; title page vol. I separated but present; vols. II and III bindings sound. Contemporary bookplates and brief annotations to preliminaries; gift inscription to title page of volume III. Overall a Very Good set of early or first printings of many of Dickinson's poems, summed up in Higginson's preface: ".the main quality of these poems is that of extraordinary grasp and insight, uttered with an uneven vigor sometimes exasperating, seemingly wayward, but really unsought and inevitable." [Myerson A.1.1.e; A.2.1.d-e; A.4.1.a BAL 4655, 4656, 4661].

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good+. First Edition; First Printing. A very nice copy of the very scarce true first edition. The copyright page states "Published March, 1929". The book itself is very clean, with no markings or signs of use. The paper is delightfully creamy. There is a very slight forward lean, not troublesome. The boards are sound and clean. The gilding on the top of the textblock is dulled but all there. The main flaw is that a bookplate has been removed from the front endpaper, leaving an abrasion. The jacket is intact, with slight chipping and a couple of closed tears at the top front. It is price-clipped. The soft peach-colored paper is soiled, especially noticeable along the spine. A mylar Brodart cover now protects it. Fast shipping, securely packed and insured, with tracking number supplied. ; 5.5x7.75x1"; 208 pages.

First Edition
First edition of the first published collection of Dickinson's letters. "Although highly selective and heavily edited, Todd's Letters of Emily Dickinson provided insight into the poet's family life, examples of the poet's epistolary exchanges with prominent men of letters, and illustrated Dickinson's practice of sending warm and engaging notes accompanied by gifts of flowers or baked goods. Missing from the early volumes were letters to key correspondents like Susan Dickinson and Judge Otis Phillips Lord, as well as some of the draft manuscripts now referred to as the 'Master' letters. Subsequent editions of Dickinson's letters focused on these omissions" (Emily Dickinson Museum). Myerson A.3.1.a ("1,000 copies"). 2 volumes, octavo. Original green cloth, spines lettered in gilt, Indian pipe decorations to spines and front covers in gilt. Frontispieces, with tissue guards, and facsimiles of 3 letters. Contemporary ownership inscription of one Lewis E. Salis to front free endpapers; bookplate of English professor Lewis Mansfield Knapp (1894-1976) and ownership signature of poet and literary scholar William Matchett (1923-2021), dated 1976, to front pastedowns. Spines slightly faded, extremities a little rubbed, small bump to head of rear cover of first volume. A very good copy.

Couverture rigide. Condition: Neuf. Dust Jacket Condition: Neuf. Edition originale. La rencontre entre la poésie d'Emily Dickinson et la peinture moderniste américaine. Poétesse de la deuxième moitié du XIXe siècle, Emily Dickinson décrit avec une modernité bouleversante le monde qui l entoure, un monde de liberté, en communion avec la nature, la vie et la mort, un univers transcendant, sensible, émouvant. Cinquante ans plus tard, les poèmes de la plus grande poétesse des États-Unis trouvent un écho vibrant dans les uvres de peintres américains, tant figuratifs qu abstraits, à l image d Edward Hopper ou de Georgia O Keeffe.
