Description

A rare lengthy inscription to a music writer, penned by a famous photo of Kerouac’s grave

Signed book: Rolling Thunder Logbook. Later printing. NY: Penguin Books, 1978. Softcover, 7 x 10, 184 pages. Signed and inscribed in red ink on page 95, opposite a full-page image of Dylan at Jack Kerouac’s grave, to Australian poet and music journalist Adrian Rawlins, “To Adrian, All happiness and best wishes to you, Bob Dylan, Sydney, Australia, 2/86.” Inscribed autographs of Dylan are rare from any era; this example for Rawlins, who wrote extensively on Dylan and compiled his articles in a book ‘Bob Dylan Through the Looking Glass,’ was procured during the Australian leg of the ‘True Confessions’ tour in 1986. Scattered creases, surface marks, impressions and soiling to covers, a price label on back cover, some slight foxing to opening pages, and a pencil notation to first free end page, otherwise fine condition.
