Collected Poems Volume One: Cygnet Ring / Cobbing, Bob., 1977

 Item — Box 391: [Barcode: 31858072461555]
Identifier: CC-17306-17670
Scope and Contents

This book includes poems of cut-ups begun in 1956. The method was to decide on the number of lines, clip out newspaper lines of the required number, and paste them up in an effective order to give an appearance of a conventional poem. This work antedates Gysin's 1959 cut-ups, usually attributed as the first to employ it. This book also includes cut-ups of earlier cut-ups, and permutations or mutations based on newspaper headlines but originating from phrases clipped from books. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
