Between the Covers

Unbound. Double-sided poster or broadside. Measuring 11" x 17". Illustrated with a portrait of Allen Ginsburg and an illustration by Wm. H. Crook Jr. From the library of a poster collector with two names stamps, two signatures, and a brief inked note (which provides the date) on the music side. Horizontal fold, staple holes in the corners (one which has torn), very good. A striking poster advertising music and poetry events at Madison's Good Karma ("a non-profit collective"). The musicians playing in March, 1973 were Dave Hines and Dale Conway, Bill Dillof (who would go on to become a banjo player of some note), Tim Sturm, W. T. Cox, and Art Miron (plus a Hootenanny with open mic on Sunday, March 18). The poets performing on April 15, 1973 were: "Joel Gersmann, Michael Swack (+ friends)[,] Hannibal (Quadraphonic poetry), Macho Tongue, "Depraved Deity", Bob Kuehn (guitar), George Swoboda (the magician speaks), Jim Zwaldo, God, Gerri DiMaggio (guitar) etc. etc. etc." A cool poster from the Midwestern counterculture.
