David Green

David Green (Books) is the imprint under which I published booklets of my own poems. The original allocation of ISBN numbers is used up now, though. The 'Collected Poems' are now available as a pdf. The website is now what it has become, often more about music than books and not so often about poems. It will be about whatever suggests itself.

Signed Poetry Books - Tom Paulin





This was another bargain on e-Bay. It's surprising how often the author's signature on a book makes it worth less than the cover price but there can't be many people collecting C20th poets.


The curly line under the signature didn't look quite right to me when I got this one. Surely it's a little bit decorous for one as serious and phlegmatic as Tom Paulin.


So when I got a chance to speak to him I asked him. And he vouched for the provenance of this signature. 'Yes,' he said,'I do that.'
