Between the Covers

Unbound. Photomechanically reproduced flyer on 8.5" x 11" paper. Very good with mild creasing, slight abrasions from tape removal, and small tape remnants. A flyer promoting a California feminist lecture about women in the prison system. A photocopied collage depicts naked woman giving birth, women behind bars, and women behind microphones with slogans surrounding them such as "imprisoned bodies" and "locked-down sister." The lecture was an attempt to make local feminists in California aware of those within the movement who had been imprisoned. One phrase on the page, "our friend Marilyn is in prison," is a possible reference to Marilyn Buck, an East Coast feminist poet sentenced to 80 years for helping Assata Shakur to escape prison in the early 1980s.
