Rehearsal For The Year 2000 (Drugs, Religions, Madness, Crime, Communes, Love, Visions, Festivals and Lunar Energy); The Rebirth Of Albion Free State (Known in the Dark Ages as England); Memoirs of a Male Midwife (1966-1975).
London, Revelaction Press, 1976. First edition, published September 1976. 33 x 20.5 cm. Pink wrappers, stapled, 220 pp. Printed on different colour papers. Cover photos by Mark Edwards. Nicholas Albery (using the pseudonym Alan Beam) presents an autobiographical trip through the counterculture in a blend of fact and fiction, delivering a vivid participant's account of the emergent alternative society and the birth of the 'New Age'. The story starts with the author's account of acid and mystical experiences at Oxford in 1966, moves on to San Francisco's hippie culture of Haight-Ashbury and returns to the London underground scene where Albery sets up several activists organizations (such as 'Link' in the story which matches with 'BIT' in real life), participates in squat-ting movement, the Notting Hill 'freak' scene and the Windsor Free Festivals. The cover photographs show the author with his wife, Josefine, baby son, close friend Nicholas Saunders, and others strolling naked with a goat through Piccadilly Circus at dawn on September 7, 1976, an 'undress rehearsal' for Timothy Leary's vision of pasture land in Piccadilly by the year 2000. Nicholas Bronson Albery (1948 – 2001) was a British social inventor, author and insti-gator of a variety of activist projects promoting an alternative society. A scarce and fragile publication. Spine and back cover damaged (tape added to fix rips). Front page features small removed sticker on upper right corner. Overal age toning and wear with small tears along the edges.

Edited by Dana A. Beezley. Seven issues of this hardly known conceptual artists' periodical. Each issue of the bulletin took a different class of drug as its subject, such as fertilizers, cleaning products, and romantic aids, and furthered the aims of the society, which were to warn against the evils of nature, and embrace the promise of chemicals. The figurehead of the organization was Chemical Girl, represented by a drawing of a smiling brunette holding up a glass beaker. This run includes assorted ephemera, including a flyer for a 1984 Chemical Girl Party, a couple of small one sheets (Key to the perfect body; The Nitrogen Ciycle; Personal Cleaning tips), and a postcard (Have you seen me?), mailed in 1988, inquiring as to the whereabouts of Chemical Girl, who had gone missing. The final item is a special hand-colored news bulletin from The Rubber City Chemcorp, the association which the Kent Chemical Group had morphed into, announcing the death of Chemical Girl and her subsequent resurrection.

Catalogue in plano tiré à 100 exempl. signés par les artistes. Les tirages sont de belle qualité sur papier fort brun.

Le Gruppo Studio D66 rassemble un groupe de peintres napolitains qui propose une rupture complète avec les schémas établis et qui veut mettre l'artiste au milieu des initiatives et des luttes. Ils voulaient impliquer tous les artistes du Sud du débutant au plus expérimenté. Ils ont choisi le nom Comune 2 en référence avec la Commune de Paris qui pour eux était la "Comune 1". Comune 2 rappelle le langage formel et les techniques du Pop Art américain mais avec des implications nettement plus sociologiques et politiques. De la plus grande rareté.

Forcade even provided funding for John Holmstrom's Punk magazine at one point. While High Times continues to this day, the focus here was on music related coverage and therefore this particular run ends in 1981 where the musical interest also begins to taper off.

Famous document from the 1960s.'The Scroll of Bart Huges'. (The man who pierced his head with a dentist's drill, Huges advocates the creation of an altered state of mind concurrent with the use of LSD and marihuana.) His experiences after this psychedelic hallucinating experiment are recorded in this scroll, which is illustrated by 'scientific' images, which are handcoloured. The 'third eye' was revealed during a Happening "Stoned in the Streets' in Amsterdam, 1965. Hugo Bart Huges (also Hughes) (April 23, 1934 . September 12, 2004) was a Dutch librarian and proponent of trepanation. He attended medical school at the University of Amsterdam, but was refused a degree due to his advocacy of marijuana use. In 1964 he published "The Mechanism of Brainbloodvolume ('BBV')" (also known as "Homo Sapiens Correctus") a scroll in which he proposed that trepanation could be used to enhance brain functionality by balancing the proportion of blood and cerebral spinal fluid. Hughes believed that, when mankind began to walk upright, our brains drained of blood and that trepanation allowed the blood to better flow in and out of the brain, causing a permanent "high.". Using an electric drill, Huges drilled a hole in his skull on 6 January 1965.[ His experiences after this psychedelic hallucinating experiment are recorded in this scroll, which is illustrated by 'scientific' images, which are handcoloured. The 'third eye' was revealed during a Happening "Stoned in the Streets' in Amsterdam, 1965.

Edited by Michael Aldrich. This is the "Mantra" issue dedicated to Allen Ginsberg who was making an appearance in Buffalo, also the fnal issue. Virtually all content by Aldrich, an exception being a letter to him from Ginsberg, a page of Mantras "as taught by AG", and a reprinted essay by Ginsberg on mantras. Other work includes reviews of The Fugs and Dylan albums. Mike Aldrich was a doctoral student at UB and began a LEMAR (legalize marijuana) chapter on campus. (There is much online regarding "Dr. Dope" as he became known and the "Fiedler Scandal".) An early artifact in the legalization of marijuana, by one of the founders indeed scholars of the movement. It is likely that the last few pages are missing as references to a review of the Rolling Stones album and "the latest on the Fiedler Case" intimate that pages are not present. Otherwise, with faults like a coffee ring stain, a good copy. Even incomplete it is rare - only seven institutions hold copies of any issue (only a couple with this issue) as found on WorldCat or commerce as of 10/18/18.

Underground weekly, noted for its coverage of radical politics, rock music, psychedelic culture and the "Notes of a Dirty Old Man" column by Charles Bukowski, first published here. Editor and founder: John Bryan (whose signature is on 17 copies) with art director Joan Barr, and contributing editors Alex Apostolides, Bob Garcia, Robert Igriega, Bill Margolis, John Wilcock etc. Member of the Underground Press Syndicate. Many issues have spectacular lay-out, artwork and photocompositions. "John Charles Bryan (November 12, 1934 - February 1, 2007), was a journalist who quit the San Francisco Chronicle in 1964 to found the brief-lived San Francisco bohemian tabloid weekly Open City Press, publishing 15 issues from Nov. 18, 1964 to March 17-23, 1965. Open City Press was a local forerunner of the Berkeley Barb, providing coverage of the Free Speech Movement. It was a one-man operation. In the beginning Bryan bought a case of metal monotype and hand-set his own copy, pulling proofs to paste up for cheap offset reproduction." (cf: Wikipedia). Bukowski's contributions started in Vol. 1 no 6 with the story "If I could only be asleep". After closure of Open City Press Bryan relocated to Southern California. After a stint working for Art Kunkin as managing editor of the Los Angeles Free Press, he launched Open City in Los Angeles, starting the volume numbering with vol. 2, no. 1 (May 5-11, 1967). In March 1968 he was prosecuted on an obscenity charge for printing an image of a nude woman in a record company advertisement for Leon Russell. Six months later, in September 1968, there was a second obscenity bust over the short story "Skinny Dynamite" by Jack Micheline, about the sexual antics of an underage girl, in a literary supplement to Open City edited by Charles Bukowski. The cost of Bryan's legal defense and a $1000 fine on the first charge eventually put the shoestring operation out of business.
Issues present in this collection are: "Open City Press." [San Francisco, 1964-1965, numbered as Volume 1 ]: The announcement for issue 1, and Vol. 1 issues 3-7, 10 and 11(published from November 1964-Feb.23.1965, out of the total number of 15 issues published). Then continued as "Open City". [Los Angeles, 1967 - 1968: Volume 2 ]: Issues 1-4, 6-20, 23-25, 27, 28, 30-33, 35-43, 45, 47, 49-50, 52-83, 87-91 [66 is mis-numbered 65 on cover; 90 is mis-numbered 89]. All (except no. 18) have Bukowski contributions. Number 20, First National Edition. The Pot Scene.

Landmark underground paper (at the same time one of the most important subversive and revolutionary papers of the world), pioneering in modern avant garde art and counterculture of the sixties, lavishly illustrated with much colour and spectacular designs on the wrappers. Edited by Richard Neville and others. Artwork and contributions by: Martin Sharp, Rick Cuff, R. Crumb, Michael English, Larry Smart, Vytas Serelis, John Hurford, Willem (= Bernard Holtrop). Other contributors include: Andy Warhol, Germaine Greer, Edward de Bono, Colin MacInnes, Peter Porter, Alan Watts, Dave Dellinger, Auberon Waugh, Raymond Durgnat, Pete Townsend, a.o. - Number 5 "Special Surprise Issue" was issued as a yellow poster "Plant a Flower Child" (114 x 76 cm) folded to 28,7 x 19 cm). Oz Magazine, along with International Times was the underground magazine of the late Sixties in England. The magazine originated in Australia where it was founded by Richard Neville and Martin Sharp, who had moved to the UK in early 1967. The lavish and admirable illustrations are by Martin Sharp (the Bob Dylan cover of no. 7 is widely known), Rick Cuff, R. Crumb, Michael English, Larry Smart, Vytas Serelis, John Hurford, Willem (= Bernard Holtrop). Contributors included Germaine Greer, artist and filmmaker Philippe Mora, photographer Robert Whitaker, journalist Lillian Roxon, cartoonist Michael Leunig, Angelo Quattrocchi and David Widgery. We also find Andy Warhol, Edward de Bono, Colin MacInnes, Peter Porter, Alan Watts, Dave Dellinger, Auberon Waugh, Raymond Durgnat, Pete Townsend, a.o. With the emergence of new printing techniques and fluorescent inks and the use of new stock (also metallic foils). Oz quickly won renown as one of the most visually exciting publications of its time. Several issues of Oz include psychedelic wrap-around or pull-out posters by Sharp, London design duo Hapshash and the Coloured Coat and others. The all-graphic "Magic Theatre" edition (Oz no. 16), overseen by Sharp and Mora, has been described by British author Jonathon Green as "arguably the greatest achievement of the entire British underground press." The magazine regularly enraged the British Establishment with a range of left-field stories including heavy critical coverage of the Vietnam War (cover of no. 10) and the anti-war movement, discussions of drugs, sex and alternative lifestyles, and contentious political stories, such as the magazine's revelations about the torture of citizens under the rule of the military junta in Greece. In 1970, the editors put a notice in the magazine inviting "school kids" to edit an issue. The opportunity was taken up by around 20 secondary school students who produced "SCHOOLKIDS OZ". This term was widely misunderstood to mean that it was intended for school children, whereas it was a statement that it had been created by them. Oz was one of several 'underground' publications targeted by the Obscene Publications Squad, and their offices had already been raided on several occasions, but the conjunction of schoolchildren and arguably obscene material set the scene for the infamous Oz obscenity trial of 1971.This brought the magazine to the attention of the wider public. John Lennon and Yoko Ono joined the protest march against the prosecution and organised the recording of "God Save Oz" by the Elastic Oz Band to raise funds and gain publicity. The T-Shirt included with the set was meant to raise funds for the defense.

Published by "Sippenpresse", a German countercultural hippie publishing venture. Promoting the use of marijuana, close to "Hotcha", and close to the Dutch Provos (" Holländische Provos stürmen leere Häuser") and the squatters movement. Kontakt-adresse die Kommune von Raymond Martin in Nürnberg. "Wir sind diejenigen vor denen uns unsere Eltern gewarnt haben". Am 13. Dezember 1972 fand in Jobstgreuth eine Hausdurchsuchung bei der Landkommune UPN-Sippe von circa 20 Kriminalbeamten statt. „Einen richterlichen Hausdurchsuchungsbefehl hatte man keinen, brauchte ihn auch nicht, da die Gefahr im Vorzug schien“.Beschlagnahmt wurden Kundenkarteien, Geschäftsbriefe, persönliche Korrespondenz und die Kommunemitglieder mussten eine körperliche Untersuchung über sich ergehen lassen. Nach der Meinung von Martin war diese Hausdurchsuchung „für die deutsche Untergrundpresse und Kommunebewegung (…) ein warnendes Zeichen“, da die Alternativpresse und die verschiedenen Lebensgemeinschaften Anfangs der 1970er Jahre im Aufbau begriffen und bei der Bevölkerung sowie staatlichen Behörden auf Unverständnis gestoßen waren.

Numbers 10 and 17 were never published (as explained by Antonio Rodriguez, the layout maquettes for Number 10 were sent to Milano for printing at the IAP [International Alternative Press], and lost there, as also confirmed in writing by Ignazio Maria Gallino, the director; the reason for nonpublication of No. 17 remains unclear, it was probably omitted simply by mistake).

Contributors and texts by: Hermaus, Franco Beltrametti, Gianni Milano, Giorgio Mariani, Allen Ginsberg, Gary Snyder, cartoons, drawings by Mizio Turchet, and various unsigned or unidentified contributors from Switzerland (Hotcha), and Fribourg (Revolté). Inspired by the Living Theatre, with strong international relations and influences. Without any concrete connection or political convictions all elements of the period are present: Psychedelic design, hippies, popmusic, the situationists, etc.

Edited by Jonathan LEAKE, World Revolution of Youth [New York], Resurgence Youth Movement, [196-] The text links the Resurgence Youth Movement with Dutch Provo movement, and encourages “drop-outs, outlaws, rebels, LSD beatniks, motorcycle heads, saints, goblins, punk, drunks, dope-head, angels, devils and wild men” to unite and join the movement that hates “cops, courts, jail, taxes, boss-men, law-men, politicians, the Army, anyone or anything that wants to use us and make us their slaves.” Leake was a Maoist/Anarchist in New York and part of the Lyndon LaRouche movement. It seems he later moved to France.

► detailed description
Psychedelicatessen was located at 164 Avenue A between 10th and 11th Streets - just up the block from Tompkins Square Park, around the corner from the Peace Eye Bookstore, and a few blocks from the Fillmore East -- the Pyschedelicatessen was at the center of psychedelia and counterculture on Manhattan’s Lower East Side.
This collection of sheets comes from the silkscreened catalogs of products offered for sale which were mailed to a customer in New Jersey.
"Opened in 1966, the store immediately drew widespread attention. Though open for less than two years, the Psychedelicatessen was written up in Time magazine, the subject of a photo-essay in OZ, and satirized on the NBC television program, Jack Benny’s Bag. It is described in some detail in Fug You, the memoir of Ed Sanders, and the Fugs even played at least one show there.The shop was also subject to police harassment from the very beginning and on June 22, 1968, the Psychedelicatessen was finally shut down.
Rick Southworth and Susan Swede were apparently not just proprietors of this early headshop, but also the leaders of a new religious movement / psychedelic cult, The Church of Mysterious Elation. As detailed in the New York Daily News ("Raid Hippie Cult, Seize $6M Dope", Friday, September 27, 1968, p. 5), their home and church, and then their store, were raided by the Federal Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs and "10 pounds of hashish, believed the largest haul of that drug in New York City; 11 pounds of marijuana; 4,500 tablets of LSD; 1,500 tablets of speed, 150 mescaline capsules and 150 tablets of various hallucinogens" were seized."

Complete set of the shortlived and highly subversive successor to 'Ramparts', of which "the booze ran out in early '69" as the editor Warren Hinckle (Editorial Director of Ramparts) states in his editorial in the first issue.

Contributors include Hunter S.Thompson, Gavin Arthur, Joseph Kahn, Ralph Steadman (ills.), George Kimball, R.Crumb (front-cover of No.6), San Francisco Film Basterads (by Arnold Passman), etc.; Number 2: Tan Am Base Vietnam, You've read too much about atrocities (the flex-disc contained in this issue is missing); Number 3: Russia's Underground Political Pornography; Number 4: Impeach Nixon; Number 8 'The suppressed issue: guerilla war in the USA' was refused by several printers and had to be produced outside the US.

Edited by Sandy Robertson. A PATTI SMITH fanzine, the name being derived from lyrics to Smith's song 'Ain't It Strange.' Sandy Robertson was a Scottish writer.Patti Smith was the main focus, others were also featured (Sex Pistols, Lou Reed, Harry Crosby, Kim Fowley, Artaud, Wilhelm Reich, Todd Rundgren). Robertson states in issue 1: "I'm starting this magazine because I believe that I have interesting ideas and yet I can't get them published by the 'big' music papers. Mark P. of Sniffin' Glue apparently said that everyone shoud start their own paper and I fully agree." And later: "I called it 'White Stuff' because I like Patti's line (from the song Ain't It Strange), and also there are lots of black music papers, but few in this country exclusively devoted to the music of urban white kids." No.1: Vive L'Anarchie; Patti Smith, Lou Reed; Sex Pistols, and more No.2:Contents feature articles on Smith and The Runaways, reviews of Smith's singles, Snatch, and The Clash, as well as numerous photos of Smith and surrealist poetry by Hans Arp and Antonin Artaud.

Published (initially monthly) by David Auten and Brian Zahn. Contributors: Steve Tilles, Phil Stilles, Bonny Williams, Paul Carlin, Lynn Coren, Timothy Leary, Robert Crumb. These first issues of Yarrowstalks represent some of the earliest R.Crumb Comics & Stories. Number one has the first appearance of his character "Mr. Natural" and "The Trip" a 20 panel psychedelic comic strip. The second issue features the first installment of "Head Comix" and other drawings by Crumb. Yarrowstalks was Philadelphia’s Oracle, one of the best of the underground papers;Yarrowstalks was a blend of artwork and creative writing. It was not radical politically, but rather a gently publication, with visually pleasing graphics and an easy editorial style. The first issue includes a 2 page interview with Timothy Leary, with photograph. The paper, following the lead of editor and publisher Brian Zahn, moved toward Eastern philosophies. Twelve issues of Yarrowstalks were published in Philadelphia from 1967 until 1975. Most of the activity was concentrated at the beginning of the period, in the heyday of underground press activity.
