Burroughs, William S. Pair of Olympia Press Paperback Firsts, including: The Ticket That Exploded. First printing of the ?New revised and augmented edition, February, 1963.? Slight separation at rear hinge and final signature due to a lack of binder?s glue, otherwise near fine. Despite the binder?s error, this remains a fine copy with only slight shelf wear to the jacket. And: The Soft Machine. First edition, first printing with ?15 N. F.? price on rear cover. Some rippling to the spine paper due to a binder?s error, some toning, a bump to the rear corner, and extremely slight margin wear. No dust jacket. Still a fine copy.
