Thirteen Mad Sonnets.
East 128, 1964. Item #2973
Saddle-stitched in wrappers with printed dust jacket. The poet's holograph text is printed silkscreen throughout at Serigrafia Pezzoli Milano. Gate-fold photographs of the poet by Ettore Sottsass Jr. This title is from a series of publications edited by Fernanda Pivano. Clements calls for a colophon which we do not locate in this copy. The colophon calls for an edition of "315 copies, of which 299 copies are numbered 1–299, $6.00, and of which 16 are unnumbered and ar for the author's use." One might reasonably suggest that this is one of the 16 unnumbered author's copies as it is inscribed and signed by the poet to printer/publisher Wesley Tanner. Clements A19. General shelf and age wear, about very good.
