Clay and Phillips, p.194ff: "A typical issie was 300-350 copies, consuming thirty reams of 24# mimeograph paper, run through the Gestetner machine of The Poetry Project at St. Mark's Church (...) Working at the Project and attending hundreds of readings over the years was a big advantage. If I heard something I especially liked at a reading, I would rush to the podium and claim the manuscript for Adventures. I was rarely refused" (Lary Fagin).SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE IX.
