Signed book: Come In and Other Poems. Later printing. NY: Henry Holt and Company, 1945. Hardcover, 5.5 x 8.25, 192 pages. Signed and inscribed on the colorful first free end page, "Leaves got up in a coil and hissed, Blindly struck at my knee and missed. Robert Frost for Leonard Frey, Hanover 1947." In very good condition, with a few opening pages partially separated from binding, clipped magazine photo affixed to the half-title page, uniform mild toning to all pages, a few chips to fore-edges, and some mild cover wear and light soiling. A boldly signed volume with the addition of a quote some consider one the most fascinating metaphors of all time. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
