Souvenir typescript of Asmiov's writerly advice-poem "The Foundation of S.F. Success," two pages, 8.5 x 11, signed at the conclusion in black ballpoint, "Isaac Asimov." The poem begins: "If you ask me how to shine in the science-fiction line as a pro of luster bright, / I say, practice up the lingo of the sciences, by jingo (never mind if not quite right). / You must talk of Space and Galaxies and tesseractic fallacies in slick and mystic style, / Though the fans won’t understand it, they will all the same demand it with a softly hopeful smile." In fine condition, with a crease to one corner.
