Notes
First edition, uncommon. Fascinating document of the San Francisco underground scene. A sequence of amphetamine-fuelled metaphysical explorations combining the Satanic, astrological, and psychedelic in equal measure, with just a dash of biker lore. Reynolds was secretary of the notorious SF chapter of the Hell's Angels, and the previous year had seen the publication of his autobiography "as told to" poet Michael McLure, with whom he had been performing musical settings of McClure's poems - Frank on… Read More

Description:
First edition, first printing, hardcover with dust jacket. Inscribed by Snyder on title page. See pics.VG+ condition. Book itself is NF, clean and straight, corners sharp, pages tight. Only flaw is what initially appears to be sunning along the top and bottom margins of the panels. But on closer investigation, you can see that the very light patterns on the front and back covers match perfectly the design on the dust jacket. So the discoloring is actually a reaction to the dj ink, and not "sunning" at all, and perhaps could be expected on copies that have retained the dj over the life of the book. So the seeming flaw becomes an interesting printing anomaly.
Dust jacket condition VG- with some staining spots on bottom, and slight curling on edges that are ameliorated by the mylar cover.
This title is rare enough in hardcover, even more so signed.
