To the academians... [early unpublished poem] (1 Viewer)

I'm uploading this one so you can see B's signature circa 1964. Also, note he had the Mariposa Ave. address crossed out, which means he probably had a pile of old white sheets with the Mariposa Av. address only and didn't bother to use new pages.

Zoom in on to appreciate all the details :D

Or maybe he (re)submitted it after moving house?

Thanks once again for these flecks of gold.

Great little find...

You can see his style has not quite formed...though it is very close where is would end up.

DeLongpre is that still there? Carlton Way was torn down, right? Is the Mariposa address still standing??
