Outburst 1, 2, and the unnumbered issue The Minicab War (both variants) (1961-1963) (all published)

Descripción

8vo. Issues 1 and 2 stapled wrappers, 'The Minicab War' folded sheets loosely held in wrappers (though some copies were stapled). Unpaginated (16pp.-52pp.). A rare complete set of 'Outburst', the second issue being notably hard to find, with 'The Minicab War' present in both white and blue wrappers. That publication, ostensibly by 'de la rue', 'sykes', and 'o'moore', is in fact a collaboration between Raworth, Anselm Hollo, and Gregory Corso. Probably dating from late 1961, it 'was done with the hope that it might give a benevolent lift to the satirists of the Establishment', and was occasioned (in Raworth?s words) by 'a war that was then going on between minicabs (gypsy cabs) and the official black London taxis'. Other contributors to the magazine include Charles Olson, Allen Ginsberg, Edward Dorn, Piero Heliczer, Larry Eigner, LeRoi Jones, Denise Levertov, Fielding Dawson, Gary Snyder, Philip Whalen, Robert Creeley, Gael Turnbull, Paul Blackburn, David Meltzer, Douglas Woolf, Carol Berge, David Ball, Chao Tze-Chiang (translations of Tu Fu), Christopher Logue, Michael Horovitz, Pete Brown, ruth weiss, Pentti Saarikoski, Alan Sillitoe, and Barry Hall. Some basic annotations in pen to issue 1 (mainly just ticks) and a small splodge to the cover, but a Very Good collection overall, that issue outwardly somewhat rubbed and marked/toned, both sets of staples slightly rusty, issue 2 and 'The Minicab War' spotted in (generally peripheral) places. A flyer for the first issue is also included. N° de ref. del artículo 006723
