Correspondence from Cid Corman to Henry Wenning, 1962 August 29 - 1964 May 23

 File — Box: 1, Folder: 2

Typed letters signed from Corman to Wenning discussing possible business arrangements, largely of Origin and Origin Press materials; personal affairs; literary careers of contemporary friends and acquaintences, etc. Corman relates the difficulties of producing Origin, and reflects a great deal on his own literary career and life in Kyoto, Japan. Arrangements with Wenning and James Lowell to purchase 50 bound volumes of Origin bitterly fail. Corman emphasizes elsewhere in the letters the publishing troubles of Louis Zukofsky, and others. 31 items
