[Charles Agvent]

BUKOWSKI,  Charles.  CRUCIFIX IN A DEATHHAND. New  York:
          Lyle Stuart  (1965).  First  Edition.  Quarto.  Designed  and
          quite elaborately   printed  on   multi-colored,  deckle-edge
          pages and  bound in stiff pictorial wrappers by Loujon Press.
          Illustrated  with  etchings  by Noel Rockmore.  One  of  3100
          numbered  copies  SIGNED by the poet and dated 3-16-65 in  an
          orange  oil  paint.  In  addition  this  copy  has  a  rather
          uncharacteristic  abstract  ORIGINAL  DRAWING by Buk  in  the
          same paint  beneath  the  signature  and as a  result  is  an
          uncommon  issue  of  a still relatively  common  book.  Minor
          rubbing  at  edges. Near Fine, lacking the wrap-around  band.
                                                                $650.00
