Unknown Bukowski pictures?

[mjp]

 

[zobraks]

I've seen this picture before but not this size.
It's almost life-size.

Does anyone know if a version of this exists where his head isn't cut off ?

 

[hank solo]

I think the sunglasses in the VW pic above is one by Montfort and was a print with the Free Thought paper, Bukowski issue.

 

[Ponder]

I have the Free Thought Buk issue but not the print...I believe there were numbered and not numbered copies?

I think the sunglasses in the VW pic above is one by Montfort [...]

it is.

In the sublimely bad taste department...

I don't know if this site has been brought up before (links to pages 2-6 are at the bottom):

Some photos we've seen and some I haven't, anyway.

Here's one for Danny Mac:

Previously unknown picture of the side of Bukowski's head, 1987.

Taken the same day as the Penn/Madonna pic in the photos section of the site.

 

[Johannes]

I always wonder if it ever happend that somebody came up to Madonna and she's expecting they want an autograph or a photo or something but they only say to her: "HOW WAS IT TO MEET CHARLES BUKOWSKI??!"

 

[zobraks]

Yes, the old joke: "Who's that bushy-eyebrowed broad beside Buk and Sean Penn?"

 

[Bukfan]

I stumbled over this photo of Buk and Sean Penn that I have´nt seen before, although we have seen another photo of them from the same photo session. I guess Buk missed since Sean Penn is still with us. :p

 

[Purple Stickpin]

What was it doing on your floor?

[Bukfan]

What was it doing on your floor?

Sshh...

I think this one is probably from the same photo session.

[Ponder]

I got rid of the Christy-Powell thing years ago, so I can't check it, but I don't think the picture is in the Buk book.

That bottom shot is the cover of Charity Ward, I think.

 

[Purple Stickpin]

Most certainly it is. And by the look on his face, one might wonder what was the fate of the photographer. By the way, Life and Death in the Charity Ward is among his best short stories. Told with dark humor and aplomb regarding what weren't his best days. It's right up there with All the Assholes... and Confessions...

And Ponder, that scratch and sniff shot is indeed in The Buk Book, Musings on Charles Bukowski, by Christy and Powell, along with a few others from the same night (as well as some playing the piano drunk photos that might have spawned a book title).

 

[Ponder]

Ah, thanks, Purple.

Bukowski and Neeli, 1989.

 

[christopher]

Still wondering if anyone knows where to locate the photo I'm using as my picture.
I need the one where the forehead isn't cut off.
I'd be a huge help if anyone knew where to find that.
Advanced thanks.

 

[roni]

from the shirt he's wearing, I'd suspect it's a Wolberg-shot.

 

[christopher]

Okay. I'll try searching based on that. Thanks.

Unbelievable ultra-rare picture of a young Bukowski delivering mail!

Spoiler: Open

 

[zobraks]

Sure.
He wrote about the experience in The Day It Snowed in L.A.

 

[Digney in Burnaby]

Inscribed "For Sheri (Martinelli?), love Buk -- 4-22-63"

 

[zobraks]

Thanks, Digney.

I think that's the picture that goes on screen while George John Martin speaks about Buk's idea of earning for a living at the track(s).
In Born Into This.

GREAT Photo. I love the hole in the wall. Anyone know if that is to bleed the radiator? Do they even have radiators in LA?
