The Buk Shop

Published in Feb. 1971, Laugh Literary And Man The Humping Guns No. 3 was the final issue of this short-lived magazine published by Bukowski and Neeli Cherry.
This copy is signed on the title page by Neeli Cherry and features several of his drawings.
One problem Bukowski and Cherry encountered was finding enough good writing. So, in some cases, they gave their own work pseudonyms.
This issue includes the first appearance of the Charles Bukowski short story:
The Time I Knocked Out Ernest Hemingway And Was Discovered As A New Literary Giant
This short story would later be collected in South of No North under the title Class.
There are also four excerpts from letters written by Bukowski to Cherry.
Other poetry contributors include Cheery (who provides a bunch of drawings as well), prison poet Tony Quagliano, Al Masserik, Ben Pleasants, and Steve Richmond.
This copy is in Near Fine condition with some discoloration to the spine area.

Book was as described and arrived quickly. Bukshop was very helpful throughout the process and very considerate.
Tutto perfetto, spedizione, comunicazione ed ovviamente l'opera d'arte scelta!! Consiglio per chi ama Buk
Was more than happy with Whoreson Dog. Also the extras the Buk Store included with my purchase. Thanks!
The internet needs more places like this! Item described perfectly, which is tough to do for books.
Just as advertsied. Thanks for these special items - love the shop.
I've been collecting books for decades, and am totally in awe of some of the offerings from The Buk Shop. Plus, the owner, Mike, cares how we finicky collectors feel about perfection. A place to visit if you have any interest in Hank Bukowski. Paul
This was my first experience buying something from The Buk Shop and I am extremely satisfied with everything! The price, the prompt shipping service, the nice and neat packaging, the communications via email with the shop. I cannot recommend this shop highly enough. If you are a fan of Bukowski's work (as I am), then this is the number 1 place to shop!

owner's personality is so wonderful.
from now on,i just want to buy item about bukowski in this shop.
I would like to thank the owner of this lovely Bukshop, who helped us, through bunch of obstacles, get this work of art over the ocean and into our hands.
Thank you Mike for your amazing work!
Excellent experience from start to finish. Simply could not have been any better. Great items. Great seller. Great items. Great communication. Great service.
From the communication to the careful packaging and surprises, I am impressed with the service of this independent shop in the Carolinas. This is the place for a budding or wise Buk collector. I know I can reach out if I have any questions about Bukowski's work and art since a true fan and gentleman is at the helm - steering the ship.
Very satisfied!
