Seller: DIAMOND HOLLOW BOOKS / MILES BELLAMY, ANDES, NY, U.S.A.
Unbound. Condition: VG-. Broadside folded in 16 sides, some spotting from handling, light edge-wear & three probable coffee drops/splotches to "front" cover but generally flawless. This copy bears the name and address in ink of the artist Joan Jonas but no stamp or postmark. We've determined the handwriting to be Susan Howe's, so it was almost certainly handed to the artist by her friend, the poet, thus saving a stamp. Seller Inventory # 3113
