POETRY ESTATE PROVENANCE WITH DESK EPHEMERA:Tucked loosely inside this conservation classic is a piece of original, custom-printed yellow-lined notepad stationery belonging directly to the acclaimed avant-garde poet, translator, and anthropologist Nathaniel Tarn (1928-2024). This sheet serves as a beautiful piece of authentic desk ephemera, firmly establishing this copy's place within the working library of one of the 20th century's great nature-influenced writers.
