ALLIES AND VICTORY. New York: The Book Committee of the Art War Relief, 
(1918). First Edition. Cloth-backed embossed boards; printed on quality 
paper and bound by the Plimpton Press in what obviously must have been a 
limited edition. Illustrated with a color frontispiece after the 
painting ALLIES DAY by Childe Hassam. Includes two poems by Noyes, "The 
Avenue of the Allies" and "Victory," printed, according to Taft's 
foreword, to raise funds for the Royal Literary Fund and "for the relief 
of artists and their families who have suffered privations due to the 
war." SIGNED on the front endpaper by Noyes, Hassam, Taft, and sculptor 
Paul Manship, whose medallion of "Victory" is embossed on the front 
cover. An uncommon title, scarce to find signed by all four 
contributors. Pages unopened; soiling to covers. Very Good. (#020231)    
     $5,000
