Published by Black Sparrow Press in 1981, Dangling in the Tournefortia is a large collection of Bukowski poems in a beautifully designed book.
This is the deluxe version of the book with an original oil painting signed “Buk”. It is hand is hand-number #50/100 and signed by Charles Bukowski on the colophon.
To me, the painting looks like a red dog attacking a black cat, but I get high a lot.
Both the book and the painting are in Fine condition.
Tournefortia nounTour·ne·for·tia ˌtu̇rnəˈfȯrshēə, -rtēə : a large genus of tropical trees and shrubs (family Boraginaceae) having alternate leaves and terminal cymes of small flowers and a fruit that is a fleshy or spongy 4-celled drupe
The 1993 New Years Greeting arrived in excellent condition, exactly as described and even better than expected. The signature and drawing are beautiful, and the fact that it is copy #1/226 makes it even more special.
Packaging was outstanding — extremely careful and professional, with great attention to protection during international shipping.
Mike was impeccable throughout the entire process: kind, professional, reliable, and clearly passionate about what he does.
A truly excellent experience from start to finish.
Everything is perfect, the autograph is perfectly packaged with great care and accompanied by items that really add that extra touch. Thank you very much for the attention you give to these works !
Thank you, Mike.
You gave me the right advice, shared original Bukowski poems, and showed me some great photos. Don’t try… Shop The Buk
Christophe and Alexandre loved it.
