New York: The Realist Association, 1968. 8 ¼ x 10 ¾ in. Offset. Saddle stapled in newsprint self-wrappers. [23] pp.
Takeover of Paul Krassner’s political magazine, The Realist, by the Diggers. Full of reprints of Communication Company broadsides and declarations of Digger philosophy. The radical collective based in San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury at the height of the hippie hysteria is known for organizing free stores, for their anonymously authored leaflets, and for fostering later radical organizations like the Yippies.
Newsprint toned commensurate with age and mild staining to front wrapper; otherwise very good.
