The Day it Snowed in L.A.
Sutton West & Santa Barbara: The Paget Press, 1986.
First edition, signed, author's copy. Deluxe edition marked "Author's Copy," with an original black felt ink drawing by Bukowski on a folded single sheet, laid into pink folder sleeve at front endpaper, as issued. Signed by Bukowski at rear, along with a doodle of a self-caricature standing next to a jug. Bound in publisher's printed boards over green, black and gold silken cloth spine, in publisher's acetate. This issue is unrecorded in Krumhansl, with a similar issue cited having a limitation of 11 copies though with blue, black and gold spine cloth and an original hand-lettered and illustrated page laid in. This copy is not numbered, instead marked by the publisher as "Author's Copy" at the colophon. Fine in Fine acetate. No doubt a rare and unique copy, perhaps belonging to Bukowski himself in some capacity. Item #140937841
