Poetry Newsletter No. 9 -- One Uncollected Charles Bukowski Poem (1966)

Published in 1966, Poetry Newsletter No. 9, featured the Bukowski poem:

The Sadness Of Rainpipes And Murder, And Myself Alive

The poem has yet to be published again.

Curiously, the back cover is stamped NIHIL OBSTAT, a phrase used by the Catholic Church to indicate that a book contains nothing contrary to Catholic doctrines, faith, or morals.

This very fragile newsletter is in Near Fine-Minus condition with some chips to the top of the front cover and some browning to the covers and interior pages.

Overall, a remarkably beautiful copy of this poetry journal out of Sacramento, California.
