Stunning copy of this early collection of verse, including "86'd" and "The Hairy Fist and Love Will Die", which has not been collected in any Black Sparrow Press edition of the author's work.

Deluxe Issue, one of 25 special copies bearing an original signed watercolor at centerfold, replacing Bukowski's printed illustration for the poem "Cows in Art Class." Slim octavo (21.25cm); photo-illustrated card wrappers, stapled; [32]pp. A fresh, Fine copy.
