NOTES ON POEMS AND REVIEWS

London: John Camden Hotten, 1866. 23,[1]pp. Self-wrappers, once loosely stitched into contemporary drab brown wrappers (sewing now absent). Some slight foxing, and modest dust soiling to a few corners, year of publication ownership inscription on half-title, else a good copy. Cloth slipcase. First edition, with the imprint for 'Savile and Edwards, Printers' rather than 'Savile, Edwards and Co, Printers' on the verso of the title. Seen through the press by William Rossetti, this tract is Swinburne's fusilade against the charges of indecency levied against several of his poems. WISE 36. TINKER 2014. (Inventory #: WRCLIT28108)
