Berrigan, Ted and Ron Padgett [Joe Brainard, illus.]
Published by New York: Kulchur Press, 1967
Used Soft cover First Edition

Seller: Mast Books, New York, NY, U.S.A.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars 5-star rating, Learn more about seller ratings

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Kulchur Press, New York, 1967. Softcover w/ illustrated wraps. Condition: Very Good. 4to. [202]pp. Collaborative publication printed in an edition of 1,000 copies with the contents left intentionally unattributed. Padgett, Berrigan and Brainard began collaborating in 1960, this being the first publication collecting these works. Padgett described the collaboration in his foreword to the 2012 Granary Books reprint as "plays, a fictitious correspondence, a picaresque novel, goofy interviews and poems of various types and lengths, as well as mistranslations and parodies of each other's work and the work of others." In very good condition with mild toning to the fore and top edge. Innocuous creasing to the spine from the perfect bound glue with the back wrapper starting to loosen slightly at notoriously fragile spine. Otherwise a clean, presentable copy of this New York School classic. Seller Inventory # ABE-1588964026684
