The complete run of the avant-garde literary magazine which championed the early work of Charles Bukowski and published work by Jack Kerouac, Diane di Prima, Henry Miller, Dick Higgins, William Burroughs, and many more. Located in the heart of New Orleans's French Quarter, John Webb and Gypsy Lou's "small, cash-starved press was an inky crossroads that brought together a failed jewel thief, a devoted Vieux Carre street artist, an out of place oil company, and a famously drunken poet in a modern literary triumph" (Poetry Foundation). The Webbs laboriously printed their publications on a traditional hand press, in contrast to the rapid mimeo magazines which were popular at the time. 5 numbers in 4 vols, octavo. Nos. 1-3 in original black and white photographic wrappers, Nos. 4 and 5 together as issued in original boards, several pages in each number printed on coloured paper. Mail order form and copy of article about a flood at the printer's loosely inserted into Nos 4/5. Ink stamped address of Nomad, California, on front free endpaper of No. 2. Wrappers a little creased and rubbed, short closed tear at foot of spine of No. 1, contents of No. 1 and 2 toned, covers of Nos 3/4 lightly soiled, a few leaves foxed, slight offsetting to rear pastedown: a very good set.
