INSOMNIA OR THE DEVIL AT LARGE - INSCRIBED
Albuquerque: Loujon Press 1970. First Edition. Easily the most elaborate production by Jon and Louise "Gypsy Lou" Webb of the Loujon Press the last title they would produce together before Jon's death in 1971. 'Insomnia' was the second of Miller's books published by Loujon. In the mid-1960's Miller became infatuated with a Japanese cabaret singer named Hoki Tokuda. He'd spend hours at the piano bar in the Imperial Gardens Restaurant in Hollywood listening to Hoki sing. Miller eventually married her and sometime in 1965-66 he got insomnia worrying about the relationship prompting him to write this book. The Economy Edition was produced because many of the regular Loujon Press subscribers could not afford the deluxe edition; it was an expensive item $1200.00 in 1970 produced in tiny numbers and issued in a special wooden box complete with a suite of 12 watercolors. For the Economy Edition subscribers could purchase 'Insomnia' with or without the watercolors the present copy offered without them. Shifreen & Jackson A175h. First Printing "Economy Issue" one of 199 copies. Quarto; variously-colored offset and letterpress-printed sheets comb-bound into unprinted off-white pebbleboard covers; gold yellow teal and black floral-patterned foil dustjacket; x 50pp colophon; illus.

Insomnia or the Devil at Large
Albuquerque: Loujon Press 1970. First Edition. Very Good/Very Good. Albuquerque Loujon Press 1970 'First edition book & portfolio' . 'Edition F'. A portfolio comprising 12 large loose plates after watercolours and drawings by Miller; a book quarto; comb-bound in plain stiff boards with a decorative wrap-around dustwrapper; and a title-plate mounted on a sheet of thick card in a large foam-lined decorated wooden box with a plate from a photograph of the author and his wife and the original purchaser's engraved metal name-plate noting the edition mounted on the sliding lid. The plates are uniformly in fine or near-fine condition three plates have a few very light fingermarks to the blank margins. The plain boards of the book are a little offset and there is some surface adhesion damage to the dustwrapper; an excellent copy. The wooden box is a little rubbed with one tiny mark to the plate mounted on the lid. Overall an excellent example of this deluxe production from the Loujon Press. The book is a facsimile of Miller's manuscript reflection agonising about his relationship with his wife Hiroko 'Hoki' Tokuda. Number 12 of 99 copies of Edition F the limitation is stamped and hand-numbered at the rear of the book with three of the plates dated '10/15/70' and signed by the author in pencil beneath the printed signatures as called for in this edition.

Miller, Henry
Insomnia or the Devil at Large
Albuquerque NM: Loujon Press 1970. Softcover. near fine. edition "F". 23.5" X 19" wooden box containing: 12 prints by Miller 22" X 17" a book of Miller's writings housed in a folding multicolored foil wrapper a large photographic title page of Miller seated on a toilet a large "half-title" printed on heavy card two sheets of the Rafu Shimpo newspaper and signed announcement from the publishers explaining the production delay. The wooden box has a sliding plywood cover with photograph of Miller and brass name plate engraved with "Arthur Goldsmith Jr." and "Ed. F". 4 inches of wood inlay perished from the top of the sliding cover and one corner of the box has cracked but remains attached. Three of the prints are signed and dated by Miller as called for in this edition and have only the very subtlest of bumping to the corners. The book is signed and inscribed to Goldsmith by Jon Edgar Webb and Gypsy Lou Webb and is numbered #42 of 99. The fold edges of the book's foil jacket are lightly rubbed. near fine Edition F was the first of the heavily limited editions of this complex work to have prints signed and dated by Miller and our copy has three prints signed as called for. Although 99 copies were planned it is likely that only 65 were produced and across all editions it is likely that only 300 wooden boxes were constructed Shifreen & Jackson A175f. The present copy was purchased by Arthur Goldsmith Jr a journalist and collector of art and counterculture books and includes a poignant signed note from the book's publishers explaining their move from Las Vegas to Tennessee. Jon Webb states "Lou can't take this dusty climate with her emphysema so we're moving later this month. Believe it will be Nashville Tenn. That's the plan now. Have no place there yet- must find one when we get there. Hope you like the Miller here- Best Jon Lou" Jon was to die just months later June 9th 1971 in Nashville. Overall a very nice copy of a monumental production with bright clean plates by Miller. 1970 Loujon Press paperback
