Published in April 1972 by City Lights Books, this is the First Printing of Erections, Ejaculations, Exhibitions, and General Tales of Ordinary Madness.
The front cover is in really nice shape with no tears, minimal scratches, and a tiny bit of edgewear. The back cover has a bit of foxing to the white covers. There is a larger, but very faint crease on the left bottom corner that isn’t visible on the inside back cover. There is small one on the top left, but again isn’t visible on the inside back cover. There are a few wrinkles to the spine from the original binding process. Finally, there is a bit of foxing to the edges of the paper.
Overall, Near Fine-minus condition.
