It is a premier collector's copy for enthusiasts of mid-century modern poetry, small-press independent publishing, and unique bookbinding formats.

Era: 1960 First Edition

Origin: Published in Brazil

Special Note: Pages are still factory-attached at the top/side folds. The buyer can choose to keep it in its pristine unread state or carefully slit the folds open.

Condition: Excellent vintage condition overall. The cover shows very minor edge-toning and light shelf wear consistent with age, but remains structurally sound. The text block features rare 'unopened pages' where the top and side leaf folds remain attached from the original factory printing process, indicating the book is completely unread. Internal pages are clean, bright, and free of any signatures, markings, or handwriting.
