I checked out Material Wealth: Mining the Personal Archive of #AllenGinsberg from the SF Public #Library (from the Park Branch in the Haight.) it is a selection of items from the Ginsberg papers at Stanford University. It is arranged chronologically and is a collection of photos, ephemera, letters, flyers. There are also some short essays such as a chapter titled 1965 about Ginsberg, #Dylan, #JerryRubin and the Hells Angels. There is also a four-page essay on the Chicago 1968 events with quotes from Jerry Rubin, #JimFouratt, and Ginsburg’s 1969 Playboy interview. Editor Pat Thomas is particularly interested in Ginsberg’s musical recordings (and has been involved in reissues of some of them) and closes the book with a chapter titled Music Recordings.

I like this sort of annotated ephemera book (see also #NewDirections publisher #JamesLaughlin’s “The Way It Wasn’t: From the Files of James Laughlin.”)

By the way, copies of my zine are in Ginsberg’s papers at Stanford but they didn’t make it into this book.
