Quarto. Publisher's original olive-brown boards with the dust-jacket with photograph of Ginsberg to front, taken by Tom Maschler. Slight edge wear, else very good. In the original glassine wrapper (usually absent) which has some small loss. Both glassine and jacket retained in a protective clear plastic cover. Unpaginated text. Three full page photographs by Tom Maschler. Original Japanese washi endpapers. Pocket inside the back cover contains a pocket holding a 45rpm vinyl disc recording of Ginsberg reading the poem, in the original plastic cover within the card envelope. After the Dialectics of Liberation Congress in July 1967 Ginsberg travelled back with Maschler via Tintern Abbey (to tap into the vibes of Wordsworth) to Maschler's cottage Carnau, near Capel y Ffin (where Bruce Chatwin wrote 'On The Black Hill' a few years later). Thr road from Hay-on-Wye to Cape y Ffin - The Gospel Pass was a favourite walk of Wordsworth and his sister. Apparently, Ginsberg wrote this poem in the fifth hour of an acid trip. The copy is inscribed to a 'Chris', so we must take out pick from Logue, Oakley, Ide, Cavill, or maybe Huestis, all of whom knew Allen well and interacted in his circle. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GINSBERG, Allen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55842000535895,"sku":"21609","price":750.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0888\/6753\/7239\/files\/21609.jpg?v=1794492881","url":"https:\/\/worldsendbookshop.com\/products\/wales-a-visitation-july-29th-1967","provider":"Worlds End Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
