[Rarebooks] FS: Wallace Stevens Signed Quote on the Power of the Imagination

[charles agvent]

STEVENS,  Wallace.  AUTOGRAPH QUOTATION SIGNED (AQS)  on
          The Power  of the Imagination. A very scarce quote completely
          in Stevens's  hand  and  SIGNED  by the poet  on  a  5-1/4" x
          3-1/4"  blank white index card: "The imagination is the power
          of the  mind  over the possibilities of things.  Nec.  Angel,
          136. Wallace  Stevens  October 14, 1954." Stevens was  loathe
          to honor  requests for quotes like this so they rarely appear
          on the  market. This particular one is a superb summation  of
          Stevens's  art. With a fine matted photographic  reproduction
          of the  poet  in a suit standing against a wall,  image  size
          4-1/2"  x 6-1/2". Would frame wonderfully together. Fine  and
          very scarce.                                         $3000.00
