[36] leaves. Black plastic comb binding, front cover lettered in silver, with photograph mounted. One of twenty lettered copies, of a total edition of seventy copies, signed by the author. Original mounted photographs throughout text. Originally composed and produced by Lewis Warsh as a private manuscript book, a single copy, in 1992 [now in the collection of the New York Public Library]. From the Granary Books description: "Lewis Warsh's newly written text accompanies a group of black and white photographs taken in 1968 during and after the time he and Anne Waldman visited Ted and Sandy Berrigan and family at the summer home of Lee Crabtree at Bustin's Island, off the coast of Maine. This is a remarkably lucid picture of a time and place, and the price paid for admission into the realm of experience. Poets Anne Waldman, Ted Berrigan, Lewis Warsh, Joanne Kyger, and Tom Clark are here glimpsed up close." Fine copy. Seller Inventory # 2449
