(third issue); pp. 52; 56; 60; very good in original printed wrappers; staples showing through the front cover on the inaugural issue, but not the first issue as described by Gustfason where the staples were through the wrappers; this copy inscribed by Bly, but Bly (or… possibly someone else) has crossed out the 3-line inscription on the first leaf, but has left the name "R. Bly." The crossout is in the same blue ink so it seems likely it was crossed out by Bly. On the front cover in pencil, also in Bly's hand, are the words: "No good." Continues publication in 1960 as The Sixties. Nos. Four- [ten]. Madison, Minnesota: The Sixties Press, 1960-68. 7 volumes complete; 8½" x 5?" (nos. 4-7), 8?" x 5?"
