About this Item

Wrappers. With the (Will Carter, rust) book-label of George Sims, contributor of the story "Experimental One", pp. 10-19. "A crowd of the old folks had just left the small rear entrance of their canteen and were walking down the narrow path when the X.X. machines went off, making their curious faint popping noises. The old folks were hunched closely together and the wire netting on each side of the path prevented them falling askew so the bodies piled up in neat heaps . . ." The last issue of Peggy Guggenheim's son's magazine. Sindbad Vail (1923-1986) put out the first in 1949; in its brief life it published work by Arthur Adamov, Brendan Behan, Marcel Bisiaux, David Gascoyne, Herbert Gold, Michael Hamburger, Philippe Jaccottet, Pierre Leyris, Christopher Logue, Mordecai Richler, Philippe Soupault and Alexander Trocchi. The other contributors to 20 include Judson Crews, Curt Gentry, Jan Rabie and Sharon Sciama. Seller Inventory # 32M100460
