1991rif. SBBIH-F2QP55Y4EU7ZFlamingo 1991. paperback. Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing fanning inscriptions margin notes yellowing staining on edge or cover or pages bumps scuffs etc etc sometimes multiple of these.

We aim to dispatch prompty the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only. Flamingo paperback

rif. 160809010No place: Self published 1975. First Edition. Paperback. Very Good. A complete set in six parts: "The Case of the Murdered Twerp" "Longing for Better Things" "Stop It Ted I Screamed" "How Love Can Lead Youngsters to Murder" "The Future" and "The Life of Johnny Rocco." Very good on average with wraps showing toning light smudging and general handling. Volume IV has previous owner name inside front cover and light creasing.

1972rif. 539752San Francisco or Berkeley: Papyrus Press 1972. Softcover. Near Fine. Photocopy. Octavo sheets printed rectos only. 62pp. Uneven sheets side stapled. Light wear still fine. Accompanied by original mailing envelope stamped with The Black Tarantula return address and hand addressed by Acker to Robert Bertholf the influential poetry professor and former curator of The Poetry Collection at Buffalo along with a Autograph Note on the rear flap: "As promised. Please excuse lousy quality of xerox. Love." A photocopy of the pages of Acker's first solely authored work sent to Bertholf in lieu of an original copy; the mailing cancel date read "May 16 1974" two years after the book's publication. Interestingly the first page of the photocopy shows not the all-black front cover which would been impossible to reproduce but the title page showing Acker's note "Myself A" likely indicating the copy was made using her own personal copy. While not an original copy a unique artifact produced by the author using her own copy of her rare first book and sent by her through the mail like several of her earliest works. Papyrus Press unknown
