4to, 208 [10] pp., bound in padded leatherette. The 1958 yearbook for Tulsa Central High School, the high school that would soon change the face of American poetry. Dick Gallup is pictured here as a member of the junior class. Brainard is pictured as a member of the sophomore class, as is Ron Padgett. Dick Gallup is also pictured as a member of the Literary Reviewer Club on p. 148. Joe Brainard is pictured on p. 151 as part of the Art Club. Rare early documentation of the beginnings of the Tulsa Wing of the second generation of the New York School, years before they would move to NYC. Numerous inscriptions to the autograph pages, endpapers and prelims, as usual. The binding is lightly shaken, a little rubbed at extremities, and slightly soiling, but a solid very good example.
