Collection of 42 arresting black & white collages by little-known Beat figure active in the 1950s and 1960s who collaborated with and was associated with William Burroughs. According to his friend, Jan Herman, Mustill "declined to play the 'art game.' He shunned publicity and guarded his privacy at any cost. Less curmudgeon than extreme dissenter, he resembled William S. Burroughs in this respect: Nothing pleased him more than reaming out the human race. His compositions stop you dead with their viciousness, not to mention their technical perfection and satirical intent." Introduction by Claude Pelieu.

This book is in good condition. There is some wear on the front, back, spine, edges and corner of the cover. There is some dog-earring on the right corner pages of the book. The pages are white, crisp and clear of any markings. "This is a history of the visual arts produced in the geographical area that now constitutes the United States. Such a book is difficult to title. A History of United States Art sounds awkward and logically might even be construed to exclude the arts of the colonial period. Thus, with apologies to our northern and southern neighbors, I use the title A History of American Art, knowing full well that the terms America and the United States are not synonymous...." - Preface from A History of American Art
