Kerouac's Personal Copy of "Starting From San Francisco" by Lawrence Ferlinghetti, From His Estate
Jack Kerouac's personal copy of "Starting from San Francisco: New Poems" by Lawrence Ferlinghetti. New York: New Direction Books, 1961. Large twelvemo [square], 79pp. With an LP featuring Ferlinghetti reading from the book of poems. Stamped on the front free end page with both a Jack Kerouac Estate stamp and the raised blind seal from the Executor of the Estate, John Sampas, who was the brother-in-law of Jack Kerouac and the brother of Stella Kerouac, Jack's wife. Accompanied by a publisher's slip reading "with the compliments of the Author." Hardcover boards with photographic images. The book is soundly bound, with light soiling and wear to the covers. Bumping to the spine edges and corners. The accompanying LP is still sealed in the book's custom envelope and has been untested. Very good overall.
This item comes with a Certificate from John Reznikoff, a premier authenticator for both major 3rd party authentication services, PSA and JSA (James Spence Authentications), as well as numerous auction houses.
