[Rarebooks] FS: John Updike's Senior Class High School Yearbook

[Charles Agvent]

[UPDIKE, John]. HI-LIFE 1950 [John Updike's senior class high school 
yearbook]. Shillington, PA, 1950. First Edition. Published by the Senior 
Class of Shillington High School, Shillington, PA. Contains a dozen 
mentions/photos of Updike including a full-page devoted to him as the 
Class President with a photograph and what might be deemed a prose poem 
that has one correction in ink, possibly by Updike. Updike was also 
senior editor of the yearbook and contributes the Class Song and 
possibly another poem that has no attribution. He was also voted the 
"Wittiest." Much ink writing within by other students but none by 
Updike, all addressed to fellow student and former owner Mary Jean. An 
exceptionally early and scarce Updike item. Expected wear. Very Good.
