E pod #1: CoAccident Texts and Scores with: Original Mailing Envelope to Albert Glover

Baltimore, MD: E Pod, 1978. First Printing. Stapled Wrappers. A rare literary magazine edited & founded by Kirby Malone and Marshall Reese centered around the experimental art scene in Baltimore, MD and its inclusive embrace of experimental poetries. That embrace is on view in E Pod #1, the first in the series, which features a bevy of sound and experimental poetries sure to impress even the most exacting avant-gardist. A charmingly odd literary collectible from an understudied local milieu. From the collection of Albert Glover (1942-2026), the esteemed American poet, editor, publisher & academician who was the foremost remaining authority on Charles Olson (1910-1970). Glover was a student of & anointed by the Maximus Master himself at SUNY Buffalo during the 1960s, & had ever since served outstandingly to bear the Olsonian Torch as bibliographer, editor & publisher. Glover passed away February of 2026, & we extend our heartfelt condolences to his family. Medium-format literary journal in stapled wrappers with original manila mailing envelope: the First-&-likely only Printing of E Pod #1.
