It doesn’t appear to have had a regular publishing schedule, so I’m not sure what the occasion was for putting out an issue. It wasn’t based on new books being published, at least in Bukowski’s case, because all four Sparrows dedicated to his poems would not be published until 1979’s “Play the Piano Drunk Like a Percussion Instrument Until the Fingers Begin to Bleed a Bit.” That was one year after the last issue Bukowski would appear in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eCase 6\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Buk Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47639593877669,"sku":null,"price":275.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/9288\/1573\/files\/IMG_20260319_0010.jpg?v=1774032858","url":"https:\/\/thebukshop.com\/products\/sparrow-magazine-30-signed-by-charles-bukowski-africa-paris-greece","provider":"The Buk Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
