Description:
33 long leaves, printed on recto sides only. Unfolded, each leaf measures 22x5¾. Unbound, as issued. Partially Corrected Long Galley Proofs.
Numerous hand-corrections in blue ink throughout by Ginsberg. This copy marked “Set #2” in black ink by Ferlinghetti, the publisher, who notes that Ginsberg’s corrections are in blue ink and that he is the editor. There is a further note that the corrections have been transferred to “Set #1” of the galleys.
Condition:
Slight darkening and occasional edge wear; surprisingly (considering the extensive handling by the author and publisher), still fine.
