A Form of Women [Cid Corman's copy]

New York: Jargon/Corinth, 1959. First Trade Edition. Small octavo. Pictorial, stiff card wrappers; unpaginated [60pp]. Covers soiled, with ring-stain to front cover; foxing to inside rear cover; text generally clean and sound; just VG.

This copy from the library of Creeley's friend and contemporary, the poet Cid Corman, with Corman's ownership signature to front endpaper dated December 1959. Corman has written brief comments in the margin of two poems. A nice association: Corman played a key role in Creeley's early career, providing the younger poet important early exposure on his Boston radio program "This Is Poetry" as early as 1951.
