(BUKOWSKI, Charles) (MONTFORT, Michael). LARGE SIGNED PHOTOGRAPH from
the CARLTON WAY SUITE. Los Angeles: Focus, 1982 [1993]. First produced
in 1982 as a portfolio of 12 photographs with an intended edition of 50.
In fact only 2 sets were produced then due to lack of interest at the
set price. In 1993, at the bequest of The Abandoned Planet Bookstore, 3
other sets were produced making a total of only 5 published. This
photograph (16" x 20") has been SIGNED by Bukowski and Montfort and is
numbered 3/50. In addition, Bukowski has annotated the photograph in red
ink. The image is of Bukowski lying down in a cemetery before a grave
stone captioned "Just Kidding." Laid in is a letter from the bookseller
explaining how he got Montfort to print these photographs and Bukowski
to sign them in the hospital where he was dying of leukemia. Fine.
