Hi all,
I lived in Hermosa Beach from the early eighties till the early nineties. It is there that I began to read Bukowski (until then I had only read Women). I bought my books from Either/or bookstore. I knew Bukowski occasionally visited there but had I never met him. One day I picked up "Bring me your Love" by CB and noticed that it was signed. I checked with the store owner Peter Pott (the grumpy guy) who said CB occasionally signed his books and put them back on the stack. I was the lucky one to pick it up. Since that day I checked out all the Bukowski books on the shelves everytime I went to that store, with no luck. Can anyone place a monetary value on this book? I still have the Either/or bookmark in it.
Here is an article that confirms my story, not a new one but interesting reading anyway
