MOORE, Marianne. PREDILECTIONS. New York: Viking, 1955. Her first book 
of prose, a collection of 22 literary essays. Second Printing but 
INSCRIBED on the half title page "For Ben Sackheim" and SIGNED by the 
poet with an interesting and acknowledged unnecessary correction by 
Moore on page 76. Laid in is a review photograph (5" x 7") of Moore for 
the book that is also INSCRIBED and SIGNED by her for the same 
recipient. It is the famous photo of her in her trademark hat holding 
gloves by George Platt-Lynes featured on the cover of A MARIANNE MOORE 
READER. Signed photographs of Moore are quite uncommon. Fine in close to 
Fine dustwrapper.         $350.00
