from Letters Home, 1967

1967's bp BOX  (which included lose publications in an envelope titled 'Letters Home') is exceedingly difficult to find, and often priced so as to be prohibitive. Fans of bp's work may likely be introduced to a piece they'd never seen, this being only the second time in print.

With thanks to Ellie Nichol for printing permission, and to jwcurry for encouragement.
