Smith, Patti. New York:  , 1973. English, First Edition, Good single page sky blue, 14" x 8 1/2". Original single sheet of ephemera on sky blue paper, program for event entitled, De L'Ame Pour L'Ame (Of the Soul for the Soul) measures 14" x 8 1/2".  Good, with some crinkling to the top third of the right side, as well as to the bottom corner, otherwise clean, sharp tips, no tears. A scarce piece of rock history associated with one of Patti Smith's earliest performances: an evening of poetry and music on the anniversary of Arthur Rimbaud's death. Said event (referenced in Smith's memoir, Just Kids) took place on November 4th, 1973 at the short-lived-but-influential queer discothèque, Le Jardin, in New York City's Hotel Diplomat. Smith's name doesn't appear on the program, but her presence is palpable in her (unsigned) line drawing of Rimbaud and the event's tell-tale corroborators, Lenny Kaye and Robert Mapplethorpe. Kaye, future member of the Patti Smith Group, is billed as guitarist
