Clothesline Editions, 1967. Item #3223
Side-stapled mimeograph, 8 1/2 x 11 in. Cover by Bill Beckman. Includes "Note on Jim Brodey's Poems & Him," by Ted Berrigan.

While he considers his "first real book" to be Blues of the Egyptian Sky (1975) by Bill Berkson's Big Sky Books, this is nevertheless his first chronological publication (Nick Sturm, "Differing Freak Wonder").
This copy is inscribed to Joanne [Kyger] in 1967.
