Description
London, 1966-1967. The early issues of an influential underground newspaper, brimming over with satire and transgression. All copies except no. 10 are in original, unbound state, and all are flat, except no. 17, which is folded once. Sizes: Numbers 1-9, about 42 x 31 cm (16-3/4 x 12-1/2 inches); Numbers 11 & 12, 38 x 25.5 cm (13 x 10 inches); Numbers 13-15 & 17, 44.5 x 29 cm (15-1/2 x 11-1/2 inches). No. 10 is a high-quality photocopy of this exceedingly rare issue, most of which was seized and destroyed by the police. It is slightly reduced in size 16-3/4 x 12-1/2 inches to 17 x 11 inches, 16 pages printed both sides on 8 separate leaves. Generally excellent condition, considering the 40-year-old newsprint on which the original issues are printed. **Several sets of this run available; it includes: No. 1, 10/14-27/1966; No. 2, 10/31-11/13/1966 (Ezra Pound broadcast); No. 3, 11/14-27/1966 (Burroughs, Morton Feldman); No. 4, 11/28-12/11/1966 (Dick Gregory, Alexander Trocchi); No. 5, 12/12-25/1966 (Claes Oldenburg); No. 6, 1/16-29/1967 (Paul McCartney, Mailer, Burroughs); No. 7, 1/30-2/16/1967 (Ginsberg address); No. 8, 2/13-26/1967 (Pete Townshend, Ginsberg, Snyder); No. 9, 2/27-3/12/1967; No. 10 n photocopy, 3/13-26/1967 (Frank Zappa and a report by Tom McGrath on a police raid of the IT offices the previous week); No. 11, 4/21-28/1967; No. [12], 4/28-5/12/1967 (color cover and color cut-up by Brion Gysin); No. 13, 5/19-6/2/1967; No. 14, Fri. 6/2/1967 (Warhol); No. 15, Fri. 6/16/1967; 17, 7/28-8/13/1967 (Yoko Ono).
