Chuckies on the Cairn
By Robert Garioch
Published by The Chalmers Press, 1949. First Edition. Yellow wraps, pp.[3],16. Printed by Garioch on his own printing press in Miller & Richard'sTrajan Bold.
This is Garioch's second publication and the first to be solely by him. His first book, '17 Poems for 6d' was in collaboration with Sorely MacLean. Garioch was a major figure in the Scottish 20th century literary renaissance and was the supreme poet of the Edinburgh scene in the second half of the 20th century.
CONDITION
A good copy of this scarce publication. The paper wraps are good with a light crease to the top edge and a small ink mark to the front as can be seen in the images provided. Pages very clean throughout. No names or writing. A good copy.
