#595 Lot 623 Jack London
Signed book: The Testimony of the Suns and Other Poems by George Sterling. First edition. San Francisco: W. E. Wood, 1903. Hardcover, 5.5 x 7.75, 142 pages. Signed and inscribed on the first free end page, “Dear Mr. Harrison, Find herein the biggest, truest poet to-day on the Pacific Coast. Jack London, Jan. 5, 1904.” In very good condition, with irregular toning to signed page, not detracting from the large signature, light surface wear to covers and some bumps to cover corners and spine just a touch loose. Sterling was a poet who became a significant figure in Bohemian literary circles in northern California in the early 1900s and was close friends with London.
