Description:
New York: Fuck You Press, 1965. First edition. Very good.. Scarce final issue (the fourteenth) of Sander's legendary and infamous mimeo, printed "At a Secret Location on the Lower East Side" - from the library of poet and publisher Kenward Elmslie. In January 1966, Sander's Peace Eye Bookstore was raided by police for distribution of obscene material and copies of FU (including this final issue) were confiscated. It seems reasonable to assume this issue's scarcity (and its terminality) are directly related to this incident. Contributors to this installment include Ted Berrigan, John Wieners, Al Fowler, Gilbert Sorrentino, Robert Kelly, and others - including Joe Brainard, whose longtime partner Kenward Elmslie's copy this is. Along with the debut and Mad Motherfucker (with its infamous Warhol cover, which undoubtedly contributed to the Peace Eye raid) issues, one of the most difficult numbers of FU to acquire. 11'' x 8.5''. Side-stapled pictorial wraps. Mimeographed throughout. Cover by Sanders.… Read More
