Softcover. First editions (but one, see below). Thirteen pamphlets. Stapled wrappers. All are fine or very nearly so. This represents the complete "C" Section: "Unauthorized Editions" of Clifford Mead's bibliography, *Thomas Pynchon: A Bibliography of Primary and Secondary Materials*, along with two variant issues not described therein. These copies are from the library of Pynchon's editor, Ray Roberts, with his book label on the inside cover of each volume. Roberts was an influential editor with Viking, Henry Holt, and then Little, Brown, and he worked closely with John Fowles, Martha Grimes, Thomas Pynchon, and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. He began editing Pynchon when the latter went to Little, Brown, starting with his book *Slow Learner*. Further details available upon request.
