"Faulkner's two volumes of poetry are reproduced photographically from copies of the original editions. "The Marble Faun" was issued on December 15, 1924 by The Four Seas Company (Boston), with an introduction by Phil Stone. Since there was only one printing it is an extremely rare book. 
"A Green Bough" was published on April 20, 1933, by Harrison Smith and Robert Haas (New York). There was a limited signed edition of 360 copies, as well as the regular trade edition" (Dust jacket text)
