Poughkeepsie: Senior Class/Vassar College, [1934]. First Edition. Hardcover. Minor foxing to first and last few pages, no writing within. The velvet is only lightly marked. A Fine, fresh copy. Quarto (7-3/4" x 10-3/4") bound in velvet-covered boards. Elizabeth Bishop's senior yearbook at Vassar, of which she was the editor-in-chief. This can certainly be considered, as anyone who has ever been in charge of a yearbook may tell you, Bishop's first book, predating NORTH & SOUTH by 12 years. Profusely illustrated, with two photographs of Bishop, her senior photograph and a group shot of the yearbook staff. Underclassman Muriel Rukeyser has a poem here also. A scarce Bishop item, and one of the best copies of the several we have handled over the course of 35 years.
