Driftless, WI: Perishable Press, 1973. First edition. One of only 50 copies printed on Shadwell and signed by the artist. "The cover is six vertical scraps of variegated Shadwell randomly zig-zagged together with the text block sewed to one end of the blank side. The cover is then folded under and around the text block with a real fishing fly affixed to the cover. . . . Needless to say this is/was a bibliographer's nightmare about which many letters were received." Hamady 63. Printers' Choice, 68. In our experience, the rarest publication of the Perishable Press. Very fine copy. 4to, cloth & paper wrappers with original print on verso, real fishing fly on front cover. Very fine copy.
