[Rarebooks] FS: Wallace Stevens Autograph Quote: "The imagination is the power of the mind over the possibilities of things."

[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
