FIRST EDITION OF THE AUTHOR'S FIRST BOOK. PRESENTATION INSCRIPTION SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR, on the front free endpaper. It reads: "For my friend and `contrib,' R.D. Hartman, this volume of `Mere Melodies' is cordially inscribed by the author. Edwin Meade Robinson (`Ted Robinson'). Cleveland, May 28, 1919." The signed book plate of the recipient, Ralph D.

His column, "Philosopher of Folly," contained unsigned contributions by numerous others, such as Mr. Hartman, as well as his own verse and prose.
