Description:
Albuquerque, NM: Stooge, 1970. 1st edition. Soft cover. Very Good/No Jacket (as issued). VG+. 4to, 90pp, stapled wrappers. Rare early issue of this brilliant experimental review, includes the lyrics to three Dylan songs ("Please Mrs. Henry," "Million Dollar Bash," "Too Much of Nothing" and "Country Pie"), printed without attribution, plus a variety of wildly experimental text and art. This copy includes 6 pages laid in and 6 pages (total) not seen in the one other copy compared (including some printed on paper towel-type paper); one sheet (4 pp) is bound in upside-down. A wild relic of an era whose wildness challenges its reliquaries. Unmarked copy, towel page edges extend beyond text block and have some fraying wear, light staining to front cover.
