Signed and numbered 35\/100.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA small, deliberately spare poetry publication: pale blue wrappers, minimal typography, generous blank space and a sequence of poems organised around the figure and name of Tiffany.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Song Cave issued \u003cem\u003eTiffany’s Poems\u003c\/em\u003e in a signed and numbered edition of only 100 copies, originally sold as a set with Reines’s companion chapbook \u003cem\u003eRamayana\u003c\/em\u003e. The publisher now records the edition as sold out. This example is \u003cem\u003eTiffany’s Poems\u003c\/em\u003e only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book operates through address. A name becomes a title; dates, fragments, jokes, observations and direct speech are given the formal structure of a publication. Something that can feel private, provisional or specifically directed toward another person is fixed, numbered and released into circulation. That movement is especially good here. Private address → poem → chapbook → numbered object.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sequence did not remain confined to this edition. \u003cem\u003eTiffany’s Poems\u003c\/em\u003e later reappeared as a discrete section within Reines’s \u003cem\u003eA Sand Book\u003c\/em\u003e (2019). This chapbook therefore preserves the work in an earlier and substantially more restricted form: before incorporation into the larger book, when the sequence circulated independently through one hundred signed copies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor The New Rare, that first state matters. The text may survive elsewhere. Its original placement does not. A poem becomes a sequence. A sequence becomes a limited edition. The limited edition becomes part of another book. This copy remains at the earlier point in the chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition: Good. Light handling, minor edge and corner wear and faint marks to the blue wrappers consistent with age.
