What are your thoughts about the different variants of the Bukowski Sampler? I have three different ones:
Bukowski, Charles. A Bukowski Sampler, edited by Douglas Blazek (n.p.: Quixote Press, 1969) stapled (cream) wrappers. Fine (Krumhansl #30).
Bukowski, Charles. A Bukowski Sampler, edited by Douglas Blazek (n.p.: Quixote Press, 1969) stapled (purple) wrappers. Fine (Krumhansl #30).
Bukowski, Charles. A Bukowski Sampler, edited by Douglas Blazek (Madison, WI: Druid Books, 1973) stated second printing, stapled (blue) wrappers. Fine (Krumhansl #30).
The blue version is obviously a later printing (and perhaps a later edition, since the pagination has changed with the addition of the endpapers) as stated on the extra free endpaper signature that was added, but what about the "cream" and "purple" versions? Are they second printings of the first edition?
