The First Trail [issued as] Hellcoal First Edition Series – Vol. 2, No. 1

(Providence): Hellcoal, 1972.

Price: $30.00

Softcover. First edition. Cover by Anne Cloutier. Slim octavo. About fine in stapled wrappers. Inscribed to poet and Poe scholar Daniel Hoffman on the first page, and with a 1972 Typed Letter Signed to him laid in. In the letter, Gelfond catches Hoffman up on her activities. At one point she writes of giving a reading, but "I was really put off by 'The Group'---most of whom seem to be connected with the St. Marks 'School' in New York (which I'd never heard of till recently)... I feel I'm probably being close-minded about 'I-went-to-the-store-to-buy-a-green-pepper;-saw-Victor...' poems. I don't know."
