BELLOW, SAUL. Sammler's Planet. Galley proof (1-94 pages), printed on rectos only. Folded without creasing, edges creased and worn with a few tears, else generally good. New York: Viking Press, (1970)
Unsigned but heavily annotated in Bellow's hand, often quite extensive with revisions and other indications filling margins. Page 63 is entirely re-written by Bellow, the proof text is crossed out and he has stapled 3 photocopied typed pages on the revised text. A fascinating glimpse into Bellow's compositional process.with-- A later draft of the same, with incorporated revisions, and a few further hand-written corrections.
