Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First Printing. Association Copy. Signed by (one of) the author(s). A complete run of the first printings of New Numbers from the collection of John Drinkwater (by descent from the author), one of the four poets who contributed to the four volumes. The other three were Wilfred Wilson Gibson, Lascelles Abercrombie, and Rupert Brooke ( known collectively as the "Dymock poets"). Brooke submitted a number of poems among them 'The Soldier'. Drinkwater had the set bound with a simple undecorated paper binding in keeping with the original soft covers; he also signed the book on the opening page. Interestingly, he uses the same label that the Dymock poets used on their books of poetry and he labels it "New Numbers Vol. I", indicating that - at the time - the authors believed that New Directions would run for a number of years, not just the one that it did. Sadly, their endeavor fell apart with Rupert Brooke's untimely death in 1915. The front outside board is water stained by what appears to have been water, but it does not affect the interior of the book. There are three small wear points to the rear hinge. Quite a handsome book despite the staining, and one of two known signed copies of this important collection. Signed by Author(s).

Add to basketFirst editions, first impressions, one number signed by W. W. Gibson and another possibly initialled by Lascelles Abercrombie. Four numbers comprising the complete run of New Numbers by the "Dymock Poets" are present here, together with a reprint of the first number. The periodical presents 41 poems, of which 15 are by Rupert Brooke. The majority of the poems in Brooke's 1914 and Other Poems first appeared here, including the first publication of his famous poem, "The Soldier". Keynes, in his bibliography of Brooke, notes that demand for the first number "exceeded the supply" and that a reprint was required. This set includes both first and second impressions of the first number, together with an autograph letter signed from Gibson to an unidentified recipient enclosing "another copy of No I" and regretting that "unfortunately, I am unable to send a copy of the first edition". Gibson requests that "if you should come across any more possible subscribers, will you ask them to subscribe direct to us? We make a little more on it that way." Gibson concludes with biographical information "I have been married nearly six months now; and it has been six months of solid happiness - such happiness as I scarcely thought possible. We live in a snug little thatched and half-timbered cottage". A half-title, title page and contents are provided in the final number for those who wished to bind together the separate numbers. This was frequently done, and a set in original wrappers is rare. Keynes, pp. 115-17 5 vols, octavo. Original blue-grey wrappers, front and rear wrappers lettered in black. Autograph letter signed ("Wilfrid Wilson Gibson"), to Miss [Mary] Gorrie, dated 31 May 1914, single sheet of wove paper (256 x 201 mm), written on both sides, headed notepaper ("Greenway, Ledbury"). Bookseller's label to front wrapper of numbers 2 and 3. Inscription to title page of number 1 ("To Mary Gorrie, April 1914, J. P. G."). Some light browning and soiling to wrappers, minor loss to spines, some occasional foxing, newspaper clipping ("Rupert Brooke's Poetry" on the announcement of the poet's death) with adhesive paper strip to half title of number 4; a very good set.
