Herbert Huncke, Texas 1947

Herbert Huncke at Burroughs' farm, New Waverly, Texas, June 1947. Huncke, Vollmer and Burroughs had set up the farm months earlier. The plan was for Neal Cassady to meet Allen at the farm so Allen could introduce him to Burroughs. In the end, Neal canceled, leaving Allen to go find him in Denver, and eventually bring him back to Texas later in August. c. Allen Ginsberg Estate. licensing >>
