Gambit: The New University Review, Number 1, Spring 1963












This single-issue periodical (except for a hardly seen "Festival" edition) is among the rarest of Burroughs items in M&M. The editor left the journal following its publication (and a scathing introduction, shown here) to start the journal Cleft (also quite uncommon).  Burroughs contributes "The Mayan Caper", pp. 26-31.  This issue also includes a review of Burroughs' The Ticket That Exploded (Olympia Press) on page 21.

Published in Edinburgh, Scotland by an unstated publisher (edited by Bill McArthur) in Spring of 1963.

This copy acquired from Hunter Books (Burnham, Buckinghamshire, England).

M&M C58. Not in Shoaf. Schottlaender v4.C55.
