Tulips and Chimneys is a collection of poetry by E. E. Cummings, published in 1926. The collection is the first dedicated exclusively to Cummings' poetry; his work had been published previously alongside others' in Eight Harvard Poets. Missing image E. E. Cummings Edward Estlin Cummings (October 14, 1894 – September 3, 1962), typically abbreviated E. E. Cummings, was an American poet, painter, essayist, and playwright. ... 1926 was a common year starting on Friday (link will take you to calendar). ...

Though most of the poems in this collection are conventional both in form and typography, a number of them feature the eccentric and unorthodox poetic style for which Cummings is well known.

Cummings would have preferred that the title be "Tulips & Chimneys" (with an ampersand), but his request was disregarded by the publisher. [1] (http://www.slate.com/id/2117098/)
