Ceolfrith 5: Ian Hamilton Finlay, Ceolfrith Press, Sunderland, 1970, Item No.4 in portfolio: ‘Wild Hawthorn Press, an appreciation by SC’, (not all portfolios appear to include this two-sided blue card, which while vintage SC writing does not actually identify the author). Note also another version of this text completely re-set (as a handout at IHF’s show at Ceolfrith?) this time with a tribute to SC as ‘a well-known poet and publisher…’, edited and without the author’s involvement or consent!
