“Seattle Burlesque” (7 pages) by Jack Kerouac is an early raw autobiographical sketch in which his characteristic prose style describes his experiences after leaving his 63-day stint as a fire lookout in the North Cascades during the summer of 1956.

It would later become a section of his 1965 novel, Desolation Angels.

Allen Ginsberg's poem "Siesta in Xbalba and Return to the States" (19 pages) was written in 1954 during his travels in Mexico. The last two pages of this long Ginsberg poem have some scattered soiling and bent page corners.
