[12] pp. Each page illustrated by Burgess with a decorative border, and printed on various pieces of wall paper, including the illustrated wrappers. Roughly trapezoidal in shape and measuring approximately 8¾x6. Burgess called this rare oddly-printed piece, “a rollicking, whooping gabble of ultra-nonsensical verbiage, eschewing seriousness in any form.” Writing a decade after publication, Burgess said, “There are too few copies extant” of this shaped magazine and that it was “hard to obtain copies to present, shamefacedly enough, to our friends.” See Burgess, Bayside Bohemia: Fin de siècle San Francisco & its Little Magazines (Book Club of California, 1954). Howell, Early Newspapers and Periodicals of California and the West, 361. Lot Amendments Condition: Lightly chipped at edges, wrappers detached, spine split, ink-stamped number "Y S 356 F" on two leaves; good. Item number: 275866
