Before Ellen Rosser made a name for herself in the 1970s as a small press publisher, an activist, and a professor of English at California State University, she was working on a degree at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. Together with co-editor Paul Thompson and art editor Gary Greussing, Rosser produced this undated collection of poetry in the early 1960s towards the end of the Beat Era. Fittingly enough, an ad from a beatnik coffeeshop called The Pad is printed on the rear cover, where incidentally, nineteen year old Bob Dylan would play while crashing on couches for a short time in 1961. Given the cover title we suspect that this was the third in a series, but have been unable to confirm this as there are no other copies in holdings save for one copy of this same edition in the UK. Pamphlet. Very Good.
