Rare Bukowski items in auction

[hankfan]

I just found this auction with some very rare items, signed books, a screenplay for Post Office and letters to John Martin in which Bukowski mentions a novel titled Streetwalker.
Nice pictures and intersting to read...

ADS, ANS, LS, ADSL, TLS... You need to know the bookworm lingo to fully comprehend these auctions.

Ok, ADSL doesn't belong to the bunch, I know.

Yes, Typed Letter Signed is TLS apparently, and so on... https://www.abaa.org/glossary/entry/tls
The photos of all these letters and items are very cool to look at, though, it's a very impressive collection. I noticed another thread on the forum about unpublished novels with pictures of some of these items, so I guess a member of this forum has put the collection up for auction.

Does anyone know the date of the handwritten poster for Bukowski's reading and his related letter? I'm guessing it's from the mid to late 1960s, but I haven't checked the list of readings in the timeline yet.

It's the 8th of December, 1969:

Apologies for my dumb question. The item description gives the date. This proves my rule that I should never post anything in the morning until I've had two cups of coffee.
