2 POE, Edgar Allan United States Review and Literary Gazette. Vol. I, No. 1, October, 1826, toVol. II, No. 6, September, 1827. Contains the first notice of Edgar Allan Poe as a writer.
Bowles and Dearborn / G. And C. Carvill, Boston / New York, 1827, 
EARLY NOTICE OF “TAMERLANE AND OTHER POEMS” AND TWO POSSIBLE EARLY EDGAR ALLAN POE POEMS (POE, Edgar Allan). The United States Review and Literary Gazette. Vol. I, No. 1, October, 1826, to Vol. II, No. 6, September, 1827. Boston : Bowles and Dearborn / New York : G. And C. Carvill, 1827. Pp (6),1-472,1-480,(2). Index. 8vo, brown half calf, marbled paper covered boards, gilt lettering to red morocco label to spine. Contains the first notice of Edgar Allan Poe as a writer. In the August 1827 issue (Vol. II, p. 399) appears, under the heading “New Publications” and the sub-heading “Poetry,” the simple notice: “Tamerlane and other Poems. By a Bostonian. Boston.” “Tamerlane” was published in June or July 1827. There are no recorded notices of “Tamerlane” earlier than August 1827. Also, there are two poems of interest in this gazette : “Sea-Side Musings” in the May 1827 issue (Vol. II, pp 137-139) and “The Poor Scholar” in the July 1827 issue (Vol. II, pp 303-304), each signed simply “E.P.” It has been a matter of speculation that these could be by Poe. Since he had apparently sent the Gazette a copy of “Tamerlane” to be reviewed, it is logical that he also could have submitted poems as well. Wear to spine ends and edges, front outer hinge cracked, heavy foxingto endpapers and blank leaves, else a good, solid copy. [AMColl] 600.00
