Early work from the legendary California press. Alastair Johnson writes in ZEPHYRUS IMAGE: A Bibliography that this early work was "probably the second from the press."

A bag in the Ludlow Santo Domingo Library. Provenance: Holbrook Teter's archive via Serendipity to the British booktrade. Ingenious satire directed at one of the most eminent and respected literary spokesmen on ecological consciousness and western Buddhism. The Beat poet won a Pulitzer Prize in 1975 for his work ?Turtle Island' i.e. the traditional Native American name for the U.S.A. The '.staunch anti-Hippies.' (p-203 Johnston) of the '.Zephyrus Image crew derided his marketing of zen consciousness.' (p-101 ibid) the design of his books and the '.back-to-nature poetry and affectation of Native American ways' (op cit.). The designer Michael Myers took great pains to reproduce the trademark calligraphic signature in a, to paraphrase Johnston, Lloyd Reynolds, Reed College Graduate style. This is an institution that Snyder had graduated from in 1951. These packets were largely distributed in 'guerrilla' actions by mixing them in with other nuts in Geary Boulevard convenience stores and selling them for 25¢. apiece. It is doubtful that many packets survived beyond the point of sale as the purchaser would almost inevitably discard them. Especially so when you consider the fact that some of these packages contained fragments of peyote and '.two six point em quads' (p-101 ibid). 132205.
