A substantial collection of prose and poetry published to coincide with Bukowski's 70th birthday. Sholom "Red" Stodolsky (1916-1998) operated the Baroque Bookstore in Hollywood, CA from 1972 until his death in 1998. Red was a close friend of Bukowski's, and a great champion of his work, stocking his books in the Hollywood shop and hosting poetry readings and signings. As a sign of respect and affection, Bukowski immortalized his friend in the poem "Red" (1989) and in his novel "Pulp" (1994). While unclear how many such copies Stodolsky may have signed or inscribed, this is the first we've seen or handled. Krumhansl 114c.
