“A Poet Dies,” later published in\u00a0The Book of Nods<\/a>\u00a0(1986), and in\u00a0Fear of Dreaming<\/a>\u00a0(1993), is one of 20 broadsides issued for the Walker Art Center Reading Series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All copies are printed on varying shades of Canson Mi-Tientes paper; “A Poet Dies” is on maroon-colored paper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were 125 numbered and signed copies (the copy shown here appears to be #50), with 54 complete sets of the signed\/numbered edition presented in a white Fabriano folder; the label on the cover is by Al Buck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were also 26 complete sets, lettered and signed, presented in a grey fabric-covered box.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
