Natur a chynnwys
A revised typescript draft, 1977-1978, of a poem entitled 'Crewe Blues' by John Tripp.
The draft has numerous manuscript revisions and annotations and has the typescript title 'British Rail Blues (The Junction of Despair)' crossed through and replaced with 'Crewe Blues' in ink. A heavily revised version of the poem (see NLW MS 24013D, f. 136) was published as 'Northern Railway Blues' in John Tripp, The Meaning of Apricot Sponge, ed. by Tony Curtis (Cardigan, 2010), pp. 162-163. The poem was apparently written after a Christmas visit by Tripp to his friend the philosopher Allen Phillips Griffiths in Coventry.
