Collection: Charles Bukowski and LouJon Press

Jon Edgar Webb Sr. and his wife Louise Webb (otherwise known affectionately in the French Quarter as “Gypsy Lou”) were the founders of the famous LouJon Press. They published Bukowski’s first true books, “It Catches My Heart In Its Hands” (1963) and “Crucifix in a Deathhand” (1965). LouJon Press also published Outsider magazine, which became the standard for poetry journals at the time.
