Book is new and unread. Jacket is new. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 94 pages; Whne I was in high school in the early 1960's, a friend and I read several poems from Lawrence Ferlinghetti's A Coney Island of the Mind at our Methodist Youth fellowship gathering one Sunday evening. We were greeted with a kind of embarrassed silence from everyone. I say this only because Ferlinghetti is over 90 and still going. This is his collection from the turn of the century.

My Landlord Must be Really Upset

By: Wagner, D. R. (ed.)

Price: $40.00

Publisher: Sacremento, Open Skull Press: 1970

Seller ID: 11938

Binding: Softcover

Condition: Good+

Side-stapled, mimeographed wraps with light general wear and aging. Some toning on some edges. I have an extra page with mainly advertising for other publications. I think it is the back wrap for this issue, so it gets included. These hand-made magazines were often a bit to large for the staples and a back page might work free. This issue is still square and, except for that page, secure. A careful person could reattach the page. ; Cover art plus other B&W Illustrations; Small 4to 9" - 11" tall; Writing by Blazek, Nichol, Finch, Kryss, Spicer, and others.
