About This Item
San Francisco: Strait and Associates, 1968. Newspaper. 16p., folded tabloid underground newspaper, political statements and reports, local ads, sex, psychedelia etc., psychedelic color cover and centerspread poster, and a psychedelic Joni Mitchell poster on rear cover, horizontal fold crease, pages evenly toned, else very good on newsprint. Scarce S.F. underground paper edited by Guy Strait, in the mold of the better-known Oracle. News about events in the Haight, including advice for tourists on absorbing the atmosphere. From all appearances, this was a pseudo-underground paper knocked out to sell to tourists during the Summer of Love. It started as "Maverick" then became "Haight Ashbury Maverick and finally Haight Ashbury Tribune.
News about events in the Haight, poetry, centerspread is two split-fount posters - one a psychedelic ad for an east Indian clothing store and the other a decoratively framed Durer print of the Apocalypse.
