Description:
San Francisco: Inferno Press, 1957. Book. Fine. Original Wraps. Signed by Author(s). 1st Edition. First printing. Extremely rare. The poem, "Return of the Rivers" is printed on a single sheet of white paper folded in half to make two pages. It is housed in a black paper cover with very light edge fading folded in half with a paper label signed "Richard Brautigan". A small circle of glue used to attach the poem sheet to the cover has bled through to both sheets. "The Return of the Rivers" is by far the rarest of all Brautigan items and possibly the rarest item in modern literature. OCLC lists only two copies held at the University of Virginia and UC Berkeley. Housed in a beautiful folding box with marbled boards, black morocco spine and cover label stamped in gilt. Book is protected in a custom cut clear mylar cover. All books are carefully wrapped and shipped in a box..
