Description:
The First UK printing published as a pamphlet by the Unicorn Bookshop, Brighton, in 1968. One of just 250 copies of which the first 50 were signed and numbered by the author. This copy is unsigned and unnumbered. Quarto. Original silk screened wrappers. Stapled as issued. In near Fine condition with just a hint of toning to the spine. Housed in a custom solander box with gilt titling. This very scarce title is 'written in the style of a scientific paper and catalogues an apocryphal series of bizarre experiments intended to measure the psychosexual appeal of Ronald Reagan, who was then the Governor of California and candidate for the 1968 Republican presidential nomination'. A bookseller who sold the pamphlet was charged with obscenity In 1970. The pamphlet was added as an appendix to Doubleday's first American edition of 'The Atrocity Exhibition', which was destroyed prior to release. A Very scarce 'Ballard' title.

I think the reason the book is so valuable is simply because the first print run was only 5000 (actually not bad for a first novel), and I seem to have been taken up by the SF community (this happened before I published SF), which contains, it would appear, a higher proportion of avid collectors than other genres.'.

A 15 x 10 cm postcard sent by Edward Bawden from Milan to fellow Bardfield artist Michael Rothenstein. The card is in Very Good++ condition with just a tiny amount of rubbing at the upper corners. Bawden has written on the verso : I am pleased to hear that you have been successfully unstitched: by now I hope you are on your feet'….presumably a reference to Rothenstein s divorce from his wife Duffy. Bawden goes onto say.'The Biennale was worth coming to see. England seemed to be the only country unrepresented. This card is a bit old fashioned, but the latest and most violent forms of painting - of which there is a very great deal - would appear to have no sale in postcard reproduction, Best wishes Edward .
