A test copy for the funeral announcement for William S. Burroughs, with photos taken by José Férez Kuri of Burroughs at his home at 1927 Learnard Ave. in Lawrence, KS.  Burroughs is present on the front cover and is absent on the rear cover.  The series of photos that these come from was use for the final announcement, with a different selection.
