I was in LA in 1992 and purchased a copy of Septuagenarian Stew from "Red" in his shop off Hollywood Boulevard, it is signed by Buck and Red signed the poem about himself on the day I bought it and dated it. Its a Black Sparrow hard back and on researching it on this site found he signed 500 first issues in the front and the books were numbered -- how ever the book is signed at the front but there is no number - does this mean it is NOT part of the first 500?? any feed back on this would be appreciated - Cheers
