About this Item

128 pp. 8vo. Black paper wraps over heavy paper boards. Light wear and minor chipping at edges but quite tight and clean given its age and construction. No dust jacket as issued. [Purcell 47]. A fitting overview by friends and colleagues of Armitage's work up to 1938. Armitage's portrait by Edward Weston is reproduced at p. 108. A scarce volume.
