Hi, I have owned this first edition, signed book of poems for 14+ years and I'm curious about the inscription Leonard Cohen wrote, "For Tom Rowlands, all great days, Leonard Cohen, Montreal 1964". Anyone know who Tom Rowlands is/was?

I am thinking about parting with the book, and it would be wonderful if it found its way back to Tom Rowlands/his family if they were interested in buying it - or to someone who has a special interest in this period of Leonard Cohen's life. I'd rather this unique copy of Flowers for Hitler went to an appreciative home instead of me just selling it to any collector.

Thanks for your comments and feedback!

It's a year later, and I've given up on finding Tom Rowlands

I still have this beautiful copy of Leonard Cohen's Flowers for Hitler. It's hard to put a value on it, since it is such a scarce find because it's a first edition, signed and with an intact dust jacket.

I've seen only one similar copy for sale online for around $2,000, and that's with "ink marginalia and ink underlining". The copy I have is lovely, in Very Good+ condition and available to interested buyers. Happy to email photographs!

Thank you!
