This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Fellow Urthicans,

For anyone who may be interested, I'm offering my copy of the very
rare and beautiful 1987 Cheap Street Publisher's Edition of _Empires
of Foliage and Flower_, subsequently reprinted in _Crank_ and in
_Starwater Strains_.  I bought mine directly from Cheap Street many
years ago, and I'm afraid it's mostly lived in a box for the past
decade.  The book and the traycase are in Fine condition.

For those of you not familiar with this work of art, there are photos
of a copy on Wyrdbooks
(https://wyrdbooks.com/authors-a-z/wolfe-gene.html; scroll about a
third of the way down the page).  Regrettably I don't have a working
camera and so don't have photos of my copy on hand.

If you're interested in this rare opportunity, please reply to this
note off-list.

Best,

Mark Millman
