The very uncommon 1991 1st edition, SIGNED BY RICHARD HELL on the title page. Even though the limitation states --erroneously-- that there were 521 copies issued, the author confirms that there were far, far fewer than that done (more along the lines of 30 to 40 copies). A sharp, well-preserved copy to boot. Bright and Near Fine in its original stapled wrappers. Very light scuffing at the lower panel edges and one inconspicuous crease along the spine, otherwise clean as could be. Quarto, 45 pgs. An early meditation (published in its completed form in 1991) from the lead singer and songwriter of the seminal 70s New York Punk band The Voidoids.
