C LOOPSEEND, 2007

Item

Identifier: CC-46990-49728

Scope and Contents Signs Ltd. of Bellenden Road have, after some adjustments I made to the prototype, produced, in laminated plastic with perspex slide, a handsome multiple of my favourite device. This comment about the work originates from Phillips' Works/Texts to 1974 (1974), p. 266. "A shop that I pass regularly on the way to the studio had a small red and white plastic sign saying C LOOPSEEND. Since the shop sold yams and sweet potatoes I assumed that this was the name of the proprietor; the double vowels suggested Dutch however and I was puzzled each time I passed it. Having seen this name for about a year and having thought it odd but probably liable to rational explanation, I suddenly came across its double in a second-hand shop in Ipswich in 1965. I was about to ask the shopkeeper whether he was any relative of his namesake in Camberwell when I noticed, in the back of the shop, many piles of similar nameplates, each bearing the inscription C LOOPSEEND. For some reason I made no enquiry in the...

CONCAVE THUNDER HOME VELVET BETONY / Depew, Wally., 1984

Item

Identifier: CC-52991-74135

Scope and Contents Wikipedia: Purple Betony is a perennial grassland herb growing to 1 to 2 feet tall with leaves stalked on upright stems, narrowly oval, with a heart-shaped base, with a somewhat wrinkled texture and toothed margins. Presumably, Depew uses VELVET in this poem to substitute for Purple. Purple Betony flowers in mid summer from July to September, and is found in dry grassland, meadows and open woods in most of Europe, western Asia and North Africa. In the British Isles it is common in England and Wales, but rare in Ireland and northern Scotland. Was commonly grown in physic gardens of apothecaries and monasteries for medicinal purposes. An Italian proverb advices that you should "Sell your coat and buy Betony." While a Spanish compliment states, "He has as many virtues as Betony." Modern herbalists prescribe betony to treat anxiety, gallstones, heartburn, high blood pressure, migraine and neuralgia, and to prevent sweating. It can also be used as an ointment for cuts and sores. --...
