Red Snapper Books, #16, a book catalogue released by Red Snapper Books (London, England). This is undated, but given other Red Snapper catalogues in the archive and the dates of books listed within, I suspect it dates from around 2005.

This contains over twenty Burroughs-relevant listings, including:

• A hardcover copy of The Poets Encyclopedia (Unmuzzled Ox), one of 35 copies signed by 44 of its contributors, including William S. Burroughs [lot #13]
• One of the 50 numbered copies signed by Ginsberg of Ann Charters' Scenes Along the Road [lot #34]
• One of the 50 offprint copies of "Letter from a Master Addict to Dangerous Drugs" from The British Journal of Addiction, signed by William S. Burroughs [lot #157] [An original copy of the complete journal, formerly owned by Dr. Dent's family, is in the archive, to note]
