THE OUTSIDER - VOL.1, NO.3 (SPRING, 1963)
New Orleans: Loujon Press, 1963. First Edition. "Edited and published in New Orleans by Jon Edgar and Louise "Gypsy Lou" Webb, The Outsider was lavishly (one imagines even maniacally) produced by letterpress with a wide range of interesting and unusual materials. Yet in spite of its formal sophistication, it still manifests the indomitable spirit of the mimeo revolution by virtue of its devotion to such writers as Charles Bukowski and Kenneth Patchen, both of whom were recipients of the "Outsider of the Year" award" (Clay & Phillips, p.50). Contents include contributions by Bukowski, William S. Burroughs, Robert Creeley, Anselm Hollo, Harold Norse, Michael McClure, Carl Solomon, Kenneth and Miriam Patchen, Henry Miller, Diane Wakoski, and others. Dorbin C189-191. Item #7558
