Catching Up with Kerouac (1984)

Phoenix, Arizona: the literary denim (book, anthology), 1984.
9.25" x 6.375" x 0.75", 118 pages, hardcover, ISBN 0-912625-01-5.

Catching Up with Kerouac: Getting Boulder On the Road, edited by V. J. Eaton and published by the literary denim (Phoenix, Arizona) in 1984.

Photographs of Burroughs by Chris Felver are at page 56, 61, and 62. 

In William Gargan's "and give you... a story", an interview with Herbert Huncke, Burroughs is mentioned, particularly at pages 74-75, 78 [about Joan Vollmer], and 91. 

Jennie Skerl's "The Wild Boys: The Demonology of William S. Burroughs" is at pages 93-97, with a photo of Burroughs by Sharon Gunyup at page 94. Some excerpts from The Wild Boys are included.

In Shoaf [William S. Burroughs: A Collector's Guide], this is called (incorrectly) "The Literary Denim" – at Shoaf II.197. This is in the "Contributions in Books" section, but the Burroughs bits are more excerpts than proper contributions.
