"A good source for this sort of information is the book
'Stan Brakhage: A Guide to References and Resources,'"

I'd love to get hold of a copy, but the only copy I can find is an
ex-library copy for sale through Amazon at $100 USD. A bit over my
pricerange atm. Does anyone know were I'd might be able to get hold of a
copy to a better price?
