First editions, first printings, of all except two of Ginsberg's contributions to the City Lights Pocket Poet Series, these the copies of fellow poet Kenneth Irby, each signed, dated, and located by him on the front pastedown or title page, often in mimicry of a bookplate, and with his pencilled annotations giving the sources of the epigraphs in Kaddish and Reality Sandwiches. Irby (1936-2015) was a poet frequently associated with the Black Mountain School. His work is concerned with the psychic interactions of humans and landscapes, particularly the landscapes of the western USA. The locations of his inscriptions chart his travels across the USA, through Albuquerque, New York, Berkeley, and Lawrence. In 1958 he attended Harvard as a PhD student and heard Ginsberg and Charles Olson read at a local bookstore: this was his introduction to their poetry. He later became friends with Ed Dorn, Robert Duncan, and Robert Creeley. First printings of The Fall of America exist in both black and white wrappers, with no priority. "According to the publisher's memory", notes Morgan, "the white cover with black print is the true first printing. Bob Wilson, an authority on modern first editions through his Phoenix Book Shop in New York City, remembers that half the first printing was with the white covers and half with the black. He received both these issues simultaneously. The compiler has found Wilson's memory to be much more accurate than City Lights' records and it seems likely that they had the first 10,000 printed with 5,000 of each cover". Mind Breaths is the paperback issue, published simultaneously with the scarce hardback issue. The first and final of Ginsberg's Pocket Poet titles are not present here: the rare and infamous Howl (1956) and Plutonian Ode (1982). A4 a1.1; A6 a1.1; A15 a1.1; A26 a1.1b; A37 a1. Five works, small octavo. Original black and white wrappers. Wrappers generally rubbed, first three works lightly toned with a few marks, Reality Sandwiches a little worn at spine ends, Kaddish with slight loss at spine ends, 3 cm split at head of rear joint, rear wrapper slightly creased. A very good set indeed.

Inscribed by Ginsberg. Number Thirty Five in The Pocket Poets Series. Second printing. 159x124mm. pp. [8], 123, [5]. Black and white paper covers, scuffed in places and with some creasing to lower cover and spine but overall in very good condition. Inscribed to recto of front free endpaper: "for Scott Eden from round the world - one or 2 poems here are from 1973 England - not much from 1979 visit. As ever Allen Ginsberg. Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics. Boulder Colo. May 15, 1981". There are also pencil annotations by Ginsberg to the poem "Father Death Blues" on pp83/4. These are mostly musical directions - "Up flute", "Trill Down", the poem being set to music on page 85. Scott Eden is a Scottish poet who worked with Ginsberg. They travelled around the Western Isles together in 1973 and Eden accompanied Ginsberg on his tour of Britain that year. Loosely inserted is a review of Mind Breaths from the TLS. A nice association copy.
