Portland, ME: Yellow Kid Press, 1971/1982. First Edition Thus. Original Wraps. "By D. Serette, Boss Printer. 1982 Note: Only 75 sets of signatures survived to be bound. DWS."

The contents are the same as Cherubikon, but organized differently. Based on 17th Century woodcuts given to Serette by Fred Anthoensen (Southworth/Anthoensen Press). Seldom found with its original sleeve. A very handsome copy of this rather scarce volume. Near Fine in Wraps. Upper tips gently bumped, else tight, bright and unmarred. Original folded sleeve shows light shelf/wear and soiling, else bright. Mustard yellow wraps, black ink lettering and decorative elements, printed endpages, frontispiece. Small 64mo.
