Abstract

Colophon: Hart Crane wrote this poem in 1920 while he was working in Akron, Ohio. An early draft was included in a letter to his friend Gorham Munson and is now in the Special Collections of The Ohio State University Libraries. Its first appearance in print was in The Complete Poems & Selected Letters and Prose of Hart Crane, Liveright Publishing Corporation, New York, 1966. This edition is illustrated with photogravures by Andrew Cahan and printed at The Logan Elm Press, Columus, Ohio. One-hundred copies were printed on hand-made Hayle paper by J.B. Green, of which there are seventy-five copies bound in wrappers of Canson Moonstone, and twenty-five copies in quarter leather and linen specially bound by Andrea & Frank Klein of Akron, Ohio.
