[HALLAM (ARTHUR HENRY)

Poems], FIRST EDITION, SECOND ISSUE, half-title provided in manuscript facsimile (watermarked 1833), bookplates of Seumas O'Sullivan and Simon Nowell-Smith, original cloth, 12mo, [no publisher, no imprint, 1830]

Footnotes

SCARCE. This appears to be the second issue, bound from the remaining sheets after the author's death, ending on page 168. There is no title-page as Hallam's poems were originally to be have published together with Tennyson's Poems chiefly lyrical, but this idea was prevented at the moment of printing by Hallam's father.
