Drum-Taps. 8vo, publisher's gilt-stamped brown cloth, a touch of light blistering and a few small faint dampstains, otherwise nicer than normally encountered; pastedowns slightly blistered, front blank becoming loose leaving a small split before title-page where there is also a small neat early owner's ink signature. New York, 1865
first edition, second issue, with the "sequel." Whitman printed roughly 100 copies in May of 1865 before halting production to accommodate the additional poems inspired by Lincoln''s assassination, including Oh, Captain! My Captain! BAL 21398.
