“July 12, 1997

Silva,
37 years my Poe
book has been on my
bookshelf. May you
enjoy yours as much.
Love,
Dad”

A 1992 copy of The Collected Tales and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe.

Thanks to Silva, who says:

“This one is still in my collection. Given to me by my dad on my birthday almost 10 years ago. It will
probably never leave my library (at least while I’m alive!).”
