Wraps. Condition: Very Good. Berkovitz, Martin (illustrator).

A very good with dark foxing at the top-edge of verso (not visible from the front), some edgewear, and folded down the middle (as most of them appear to have been). The broadside was distributed in the Spring 1963 issue of the Fiddlehead, which is included here, and which includes 58 poems by Acorn. The magazine is lightly sunned along bottom-edge, and also has dark foxing along top-edge. Book.
