SCARCE LIMITED FIRST EDITION WITH THE RARE INTEGRAL TITLE PAGE 

Williams, Tennessee. ONE ARM AND OTHER STORIES. New York, [1948]: New Directions, Quarto. FIRST EDITION, First State and one of a few known copies in the First States (according to Ralph Sipper). with an integral title page which reads on the verso "Copyright 1948/New Directions". Williams discovered this and required the publisher to excise the title pages in virtually all of the 1500 copy editions and to insert a corrected leaf, with the copyright assigned to Williams. This is one of the very few copies that escaped the knife. 210pp., as new in the publisher's slipcase as issued. [pb.0341]
