FIRST EDITION, WITH TYPED ENVELOPE & HANDWRITTEN LETTER. 8vo, incl. b/w plates. Original maroon cloth, spine lettered and decorated in gilt, blind-stamped 'JSU' insignia to upper board. Top edge yellow, others untrimmed. Extremities bumped, light stain to upper board. Pencil note stating: "Bryher's copy/ w/ letter of presentation," typed addressed envelope to "Madame W. Bryher" laid in, containing a fond handwritten note from Untermeyer. Stains to pp 146-7, else, clean and tight. Very good A pleasing copy of Untemeyer's memoirs, which features three references to Bryher (including a rather hilarious account of their first meeting at a dinner held by Amy Lowell and her partner Ada Russell). Untermeyer's brief, undated letter, signed "Devotedly yours," makes reference to something being sent, belatedly, to Bryher after Christmas, but it is unclear whether it's her memoir (as the pencil note on the fep suggests).
