[Rarebooks] FS: Elizabeth Bishop Pre-Dating Her First Book by 12 Years, THE 1934 VASSARION

[Charles Agvent]

BISHOP, Elizabeth (Editor-in-Chief). THE 1934 VASSARION. Poughkeepsie: 
Senior Class/Vassar College, [1934]. First Edition. Quarto (7-3/4" x 
10-3/4") bound in velvet-covered boards. Elizabeth Bishop's senior 
yearbook at Vassar, of which she was the editor-in-chief. This can 
certainly be considered, as anyone who has ever been in charge of a 
yearbook may tell you, Bishop's first book, predating NORTH & SOUTH by 
12 years. Profusely illustrated, with two photographs of Bishop, her 
senior photograph and a group shot of the yearbook staff. Underclassman 
Muriel Rukeyser has a poem here also. A scarce Bishop item, and the best 
copy of the several we have handled over the course of 25 years. A few, 
inevitable marks to the velvet. A Fine, fresh copy with no writing 
within other than the 1934 name of a classmate on the front free 
endpaper. (#017233)        $2,000
