one of 598 with Frost's own imprint. INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the author 
on the page with the printed greeting: "To ---/for translating me so 
pleasantly/to [?] Villarino (?)/Robert Frost/Cambridge Mass/April 24 
1956(?)." When inscribing Christmas greetings, Frost would often not 
sign his name or at the most simply write his initials, which makes this 
presentation rather uncommon. Paper at spine split below bottom staple.
