Quarter green cloth over purple paper-covered boards. Treece’s second work, an anthology with contributions from the editors, Nicholas Moore, G. S. Fraser, Norman McCaig, Tom Scott, Vernon Watkins, and Robert Melville, with one colour plate and four monochrome plates. A scarce anthology, especially in the jacket. This copy even more collectible, being owned by writer, artist and critic, Fred Urquhart, with his signature in ink to ffep corner. A very good or better copy in good dust jacket, several closed tears, chips and loss to spine tips and forecorners, a few other creases and several repairs to verso, and clipped, but scarce to rare.
