The text originated from various cut-ups, made by all four of these friends staying at the Beat Hotel in Paris in the late 50 s. Signed by Burroughs, Gysin and Beilis. The signed copies (of which this is one) were produced ad hoc at the night of the launch party at the English Bookshop in Paris, whilst Corso was in Munich finalizing the Beat Anthology he and Anselm Hollo were bringing out. (Copies with Corso s signature are a bit suspect.) Fading to cover as usual, though mystery why the fading goes from blue to grey-brown. Near fine otherwise.
