The Exterminator.

SF: The Auerhahn Press, 1960. First edition. Wrps. Designed and printed by Dave Haselwood. Cover calligraphy by Brion Gysin. SIGNED by William Burroughs on the title page.

The second collection of cut-ups, containing material that Burroughs and Gysin completed in December 1959, before “Minutes To Go” was published. Gysin contributes several permutated poems, but most of the work is from Burroughs (the book was copyrighted to him at Gysin’s request, since he owed him some money; it was also his first book from an American publisher since the pseudonymous “Junkie” in 1953).

Near Fine. One of approximately 1000 copies printed.
