Hanuman Books, 1992. First edition, first printing. Hanuman Books has issued titles from 1986 to 1993 out of the Chelsea Hotel by its creator Raymond Foye, art critic and editor at large, and Italian painter Francesco Clemente. The books though never beautifully produced and with slight flaws at times were influenced by Indian prayer books. Their small size and bright in color were well dedicated to the writings of the particular poet or artist or outsider. Though the books might be somewhat slight in production, mainly they were all gems. Often they were published as 12 books in a year over the spring and fall. They were printed on letterpress in Madras. The pages were sewn together by local fisherman as the tale goes and others. Basically the books hold to a 3 x 4 dimension. Near fine and bright with just the lightest use. Pictorial font cover of Robert Frank in motion. Illustrated with Frank photographs. Never been read. Payment by personal check is required, thank you.
