Charles Bukowski. The day it snowed in L.A. : the adventures of Clarence Hiram Sweetmeat. Paget Press, Sutton West, Ont. ; Santa Barbara, Calif., 1986.

Price: US$30.00 + shipping

Condition: Fair

Description: 14 unnumbered leaves : color illustrations. Though this is quite acceptable copy, we have graded it as fair owing to staple marks at its spine and the ghost of a horizontal adhesive strip at its rear wrapper, indicating that it was once housed in a pamphlet binder in a library collection. The paper wrappers age good and contents unmarked, other than the helpful comment "This was bullshit" in ink below the summary of Bukowski's work at the last leaf. 70 grams.
