Postcard with Drawing of Neal Cassady by Carolyn Cassady
California, PA: Arthur & Kit Knight, 1976. First Printing. Single Sheet. An original postcard with a very well-printed reproduction of Carolyn Cassady's drawing of her husband, Beat-&-beyond icon Neal Cassady, gracing the whole front surface. Signed & dated 1951 at lower left corner, the drawing depicts Neal typing, seated in loose-fitting pajamas. Issued in 1976 as part of The Unspeakable Visions of the Individual series by Arthur Knight (1937-2012) & his wife, Kit Knight. The Knights were pioneering promoters & publishers of the Beats among the first generation to follow them, with many important compilations that are now collectible. A superb Cassady rarity, in fine condition with only moderate browning to front & back surfaces of thick, somewhat coarse-textured card stock. Fine. [Item #2096]
