100 numbered copies, published to commemorate Howard's 100th birthday. A meeting, originally planned for the Black Dog Tavern, was actually held at The Torch, a nearby tavern in Fort Worth, TX. Poems were read aloud by various Howard fans, as were some parts of Howard stories, about 40 readings in all.
Most copies of this publication were sold at that meeting.
