Subject: m$r lo. lee. to you
Lo...light of my life...fire of my loins..the ny times reports that
Nab's own copy, rev. for the amer. ed. sold by Glenn Horowitz Booksellers
Inc..for 125 grand..was there a line...lo..lit...on top of over a Mill. for
Schiller's copy of Alice..pedophillia...O SHOW ME...to the heart of Tex
ass......
In factum, every copy of Show Me i've sold, as well as Sugar&Spice,
and the 50 or so David Hamilton's made me wince, tho...not nuf to stop
selling them or raising the price...The Garden of Adonis...or the TRES
famous photographer to whom I've sold 30=40 such...
The strangest one of these, I bought from the relatives of a gay man,
they're always coming in from Iowa, to see WHAT uncle George left them, he
left a pricey coop worth a few hundred grand and a houseful of books, I
bought some of them...and kept digging and then sure nuf out of the closet
there came a BOY;S CAMP ALBUM from the 30's, tipped in photos of the Boy;s
at revellie, swimming, frisking good naturedly...Out of say 100 photos
there were let's say 3 or 4 that were just a bit off...with the derriere
front etc...an elaborate production for 3 tushee shots..but must have been
worth it to someone...they were embarassed and i was embarassed to sell it
for a few hundred..
We all get over it, book collecting is a small sickness in the large
sickness of the capitalist world, love of children, is......i'm not going
to touch that...you touch it...i;ll get mail from texas... O LoLiTa...O
peace and jessica, 28 & 8...love is a strange fruit...the sweet sweat & So
