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.
