Clearing out some duplicate and unwanted stuff. It's headed for eBay unless someone wants some of it here. Postage (to U.S. only) is included in the price.
1971 - The Black Sparrow Press - A Checklist - $18
Cooney. The first 100 BSP publications. softcover, perfect bound (flat spine), some sunning to the spine, which is typical for this title, otherwise perfect. First and only edition (I think there were 800 made).
1981 - A Bibliography of the Black Sparrow Press 1966 - 1978 - $45
Morrow, Cooney. 300 page BSP hardcover first (and only, I assume) edition.
cirerita [STRIKE]1972 - Stonecloud #1[/STRIKE] - $10
Long Bukowski interview not collected in any of the interview books. Not in excellent condition, but pretty close. 1 inch wrinkle in front cover, rough spot near spine on rear cover.
hank solo [STRIKE]1977 - Hustler (October)[/STRIKE], short story 3 Chickens - $10
excellent condition.
cirerita [STRIKE]2003 - Bukowski: Born Into This - Magnolia Pictures 15 page press notes.[/STRIKE] - $10
Two pieces about the film, process and motivation written by director Dullaghan, Bukowski bio, trivia and quotes. This accompanied the VHS review screeners of the film that were sent out when it was released in theaters.
cirerita [STRIKE]1990 - Village View[/STRIKE] - $10
Westwood CA weekly, Mary Ann Swisler's Bukowski interview (Bukowski on cover). Folded across the middle and somewhat yellowed as most weekly newspapers are. Never seen one of these on eBay.
Purple Stickpin [STRIKE]circa 1884? - Scarlet: Aren't You Going To Kiss Me Goodbye?[/STRIKE] - $100
See it here. The infamous and cantankerous Red of Baroque Books in Hollywood made up a few of these when he was trying to sell the letters stolen from Pam "Cupcakes", "Scarlet", "Red" Miller. Interesting more for the history and who made it than the contents. If you have Scarlet, this should be on the shelf next to it, right?
1994 - Contemporary Literary Criticism #82 - $45
30 pages on Bukowski. Great condition. Is ex-library, but it was a reference book, so no one could check it out. It doesn't look like it saw much reference use either. Big hardcover. Weighs a couple of pounds, so I'll have to send it media mail (unless you want to pay more for priority).
I also have less-than-perfect first editions of Last Night of the Earth Poems ($20) and Dangling in the Tournefortia ($15) available, if anyone is looking for an affordable first. Booksellers would call these very good (but booksellers are weird) - I call them acceptable.
I might have more later. I'm trying to weed out the shelves but everything I pull out I end up sticking back in; "Oh, no, I need that...can't let that go..." It's sad, really.
