"Amok Fourth Dispatch" Catalog (1989)

Los Angeles, California, US: Amok
10.75" x 8.25" x 0.75", 351 numbered pages.

Amok Fourth Dispatch, a catalog for the Los Angeles, California based bookseller Amok. This was a bookseller that specialized in books on the fringes, and hard-to-get titles. 

This includes three pages of William S. Burroughs items with summary reviews, pp. 192-194.

This copy of the catalog is likely an early printing given its blue covers, and the fact that most copies of the Fourth Dispatch are white covers with the painting represented here taking up the full frame.  This copy belongs to my partner.
