(x), (32), (vi)pp. With an illustration from a drawing by Caresse Crosby. One of the rarest books from the Press, and, apart from a copy on vellum of the Rubaiyat that is only known in Queen Mary's Doll House, the only miniature book Crosby produced. Crosby's text is a paean to the sun, which is fitting, given his Icarus-like biography. Bound in brown morocco with gilt sun device and scroll border on upper and lower covers; nine gilt stars on spine. Very fine. (Minkoff A-24)
