Description

Anyone who is seriously into The Beats and has been reading or collecting Beat literature for more than a decade should be aware of the contribution Arthur and Kit Knight have made to the legend.  They documented everything and everyone Beat related starting back in the 70's when all of Kerouac's books except for On The Road were out of print.  Their dozens of books, Beat Diary, Kerouac and The Beats, The Beat Vision along with the dozens of other items they published with "Unspeakable Visions" are major collectibles today.  Quite a few of their broadsides and lithographs from the 1970's grace the walls of The Beat Museum today.

Special Instructions

Arthur and Kit live in Yearington, Nevada, a little more than an hour from both Reno and Tahoe.  The lunch will take place in this general area, preferable Yearington itself which you might enjoy as Arhur & Kit told me the town boasts two Casinos where you can stay overnight for only $50-$60 a night.
