Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Trade Edition; 1st Printing. SIGNED EDITION. Limited Trade edition. (NOT the deluxe edition numbered and signed by several of the artists. ) Folio sized book.

The book and its contents are in clean, bright condition. The text pages are clean and bright. Included are several promotional fliers and mailers. "The initial impetus for the paper came from Allen Cohen and head shop owners Ron and Jay Thelin, who offered to put up the seed money to found an underground paper. In the summer of 1966 a number of meetings were held in the Haight-Ashbury district to discuss the idea of starting a paper, attracting an eclectic group of interested people. The result of these meetings was a paper called P. O. Frisco which lasted for a single 12-page tabloid issue dated September 2, 1966, under the editorship of Dan Elliot and Richard Sassoon (a 31-year-old Yale-educated poet who had once been Sylvia Plath's boyfriend) , operating out of a storefront on Frederick Street in cooperation with members of the radical Progressive Labor Party. "P. O." stood for "Psychedelphic Oracle," a title suggested by Bruce Conner. P. O. Frisco was a compromise between the various factions involved in founding the paper which wound up satisfying no one, and the Thelin brothers threatened to terminate their financial support unless the paper was completely reinvented.

n°1, septembre 1966 - n°12, février 1968; Format de 280x280mm à 445x929mm, 12 à 32 pages, en feuilles.Collection complète Également connu sous le nom de San Francisco Oracle, the Oracle of the city of San Francisco était un journal clandestin publié en 12 numéros du 20 septembre 1966 à février 1968 dans le quartier Haight-Ashbury de cette ville. Allen Cohen (1940-2004), rédacteur en chef pendant la période la plus dynamique du journal, et Michael Bowen, directeur artistique, comptent parmi les fondateurs de la publication. L'Oracle a été l'un des premiers membres de l'Underground Press Syndicate. L'Oracle combinait poésie, spiritualité et intérêts multiculturels avec un design psychédélique, reflétant et façonnant la communauté contre-culturelle telle qu'elle se développait à Haight-Ashbury. Sans doute l'exemple exceptionnel de psychédélisme dans la presse « underground », la publication était connue pour son design multicolore expérimental. Les contributeurs d'Oracle comprenaient de nombreux artistes importants de la région de San Francisco de l'époque, notamment Bruce Conner et Rick Griffin. Il mettait en vedette des auteurs de beat tels qu'Allen Ginsberg, Gary Snyder, Lawrence Ferlinghetti et Michael McClure.

Prospectus, related ephemera, and list of signatories laid-in. 385 pages. First facsimile edition, inscribed profusely, vernacular illustration. Good. Handled extensively in the collection of signatures. Previous owner was once a bookseller and is now an accomplished book artist and fine printer. An incredible array of names, with all (except artist John Thompson who signed on the flyleaf and drew an occult symbol) inscribing or flat-signing the pages that feature their Oracle contributions. The list includes: Allen and Ann Cohen, Ken Kesey, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Michael McClure, the surviving members of Big Brother and the Holding Company (including Getz), etc. Rumor has it that the original owner embellished the Kesey page with his own illustrations while tripping on mushrooms; he told the story to Kesey, and Kesey inscribed his reaction. Most of the signatures were gathered at the book's release party, the rest were friends of the printer. Once in a lifetime psychedelic Sixties artifact with cast-iron provenance. Signed by Author(s).
