"and there it was: Flower, Fist and Bestial Wail, never a baby born in more pain - a beautiful baby, beautiful! The first collected poems of a man of 40, who began writing late [...] It’s a beautiful job, clean and pure, poem arrangement perfect."
(Charles Bukowski to his publisher E. V. Griffith October 14, 1960)

**BUMP**

The ebay-sale didn't work.
I'm still offering this historic gem.

Even though I'd like to leave it and do need money, I won't be available for undecent offers.
This VERY FIRST book of Bukowski's poetry (1960) has its value and you won't Ever find it at a cheaper prize anywhere.

The item is located in the U.S.
(our bospress is kind enough to help me with this sale by storing the chapbook and sending it inside the US (insured) for only the real cost).

I'm not parting with this great historic collectible delibaretely, but won't give it away for free either.
It's a bargain anyway.
The prize now is 5,555.- USD

I am broke but hell, if I was a wealthy man that is the kind of thing on which I'd spend my money. Good luck Roni.

You might want to think about $5555.00 in trade. Sometimes It's easier to get rid of 20 signed books instead of 1. You may even make a profit.
