ACTON, Harold.
Autograph manuscript: "Poems 1925".
With the author's 3-page autograph letter presenting this manuscript to Sir Robert Abdy, with the recipient's small bookplate to the front pastedown. Acton alludes to Abdy's gift of a book from which he had "learned much". The manuscript itself is essentially a fair copy of part of Acton's Five Saints and and Appendix with some occasional corrections. Two pages at the end are neatly crossed through. Acton's papers are held institutionally and manuscript material by him is rare in commerce.
Octavo. Original batik-patterned green wrappers printed in black and gold. In a matching card slipcase. In excellent condition.
