Luna-Park, Number 7, March 1981

Burroughs contributes 13 pages from his scrapbooks, in reproduction, pp. 6-18, with a brief essay on the scrapbooks in the "Notes" section at end of volume.

At page 89 is what I assume to be an image of Burroughs' Tangier visa from 1958.

Published in Paris, France by Transédition in March, 1981.

This copy acquired from Derringer Books (Avon, CT.). I have an additional copy as part of a complete set of Luna-Park/Lunapark (original and new series), gifted to me by Janet Galore.
