About this Item

8vo, 56 leaves; contemporary half red straight-grain morocco over marbled boards; spine a bit rubbed, and a few small worm holes at joint of mid-spine, else very good. Identification number in a later hand on title page and lower paste down. A collection of poems written in a neat hand, mostly from known poets, but with a number of original poems provided by the compiler (Mallory) and a lady named Marie. There is a momentary change of hand for one poem, but all other poems appear to be in Mallory's hand. Dated poems indicate Mallory worked on his collection from 1859-1862. A note at the end indicates a continuing volume, though we're unsure if it exists.
