Nice images of the film posters of the Stenberg Brothers at Mubi. Meant to see the show at Tony Shafrazi, didn’t make it.
I didn’t know that George Morrow & E. V. Lucas had collaborated past What a Life!; it seems as if they did two other books of collage. Change for a Half-Penny is also up at Google Books.
Scans of 291 and 391 (incomplete) are up at Ubu.com.
The Charles Ruas audio archives are worth spending time with. He put together the old readings of Miss MacIntosh, My Darling, which one hopes might turn up here?

I’m taking part in a group reading of Marguerite Young’s enormous and seldom read Miss Macintosh, My Darling over at World’s Least Popular Book Club. Others involved are Damion Searls, Will Schofield, Levi Stahl, Ed Park, and Stephen Sparks. It should be entertaining . . .
