First edition. 8vo. Saddle-stapled wraps. Illustrated with drawings by Robert Ronnie Branaman. One of 750 copies. First edition of the author's first book, one of the most unusual books of poetry from the decade, from one of the most elusive poets of the time. The strangeness of Marshall's poems is perfectly matched with the infernal line drawings of Branaman, considered one of the first underground comic artists because of his 1963 eponymous zine. [Auerhahn 10]. Near fine with some faint traces of soiling and a touch of rubbing to spine ends.
