New—old—book & new—old—bookstand, both picked up in Glasgow today.

The former is an apparently rare Edwin Morgan title from Mariscat Press, first published in 1984. This is the 1986 2nd impression. Wonderful, unmistakeable Alasdair Gray cover.

The stand is more likely a display stand, made for the Dahlberg Offisupply Company of Des Moines, Iowa. No idea where I’m going to put it!
