Price: $450.00
Unbound. Printed orange card leaf folder, folded to six pages. Laid in are six printed folded quarto leaves printed rectos only, and two smaller handbills printed on both sides. Folder exhibits some wear and a little sunning, very good; the inserts are folded as issued, else fine. Graphically interesting advertising packet for a counterculture and literary magazine. Aside from a cover letter soliciting subscriptions for their (unpublished) magazine "Man-U-Code" and donations, the other five sheets are concrete-style broadsides including the poems "Flight of the Crow" by Reider (*OCLC* locates two copies), and "An Augtwofive Unintentional" by Herschel Silverman (*OCLC* locates no copies), as well as an anti-draft broadside; a financial statement decorated with porn; and a broadside calling for the impeachment of the President. The handbills both take the form of comix art *OCLC* locates five items published by Augtwofive (with the Rieder broadside with the least amount of holdings). The magazine "Man-U-Code", although her designated as "ready for press" with an impressive list of contributors, was apparently never published. Augtwofive was "conceived Novemebr 69 to promote radical consciousness through evocation of field perception associative multi-channeled energy-exchange (Synergy)." Scarce.
