Presentation copy of the first edition of Gumilev's first book, in the original wrappers. Published when Gumilev – one of Russia's best-loved poets – was just nineteen, in an edition of only 300 copies funded by his parents. This copy is inscribed by the author to ‘the esteemed Arkady Andreyevich Mukhin as a keepsake from the author respecting him’. RBH and ABPC record a single copy having been offered at auction, not inscribed; WorldCat locates just one copy outside of Russia, at Yale University. Not in Kilgour.
Octavo (214 x 140mm). With the half-title and the final blank (occasional light marginal soiling). Original green wrappers printed in black (spine repaired, light soiling and light staining). Provenance: Nikolai Stepanovich Gumilev (inscribed to:) - Arkady Andreyevich Mukhin.
