Charles Bukowski: A Publishing History, featuring David Gregor

This is an interesting chapbook published by Johnny Brewton and his X-Ray Book Co.

This is one of a two-part series on the publishing history of Charles Bukowski.

This one features an essay by David Gregor, an antiquarian bookseller who has a specialty in Bukowski works.

The name of the easy is “A Bibliographical Primer on the Worked of Charles Bukowski”.

Gregor offers a two-paragraph introduction, followed by descriptions of 20 Bukowski works published between 1944–1966.

The final long paragraph provides a preview of what comes next with Black Sparrow Press.

The chapbook is composed of two pages measuring 14’ x 8.5’, folded once to make an eight-page booklet.

A separate publication chapbook delves into the Black Sparrow Press years and teased here.
