[Rama Pipien Collective]. Rama Pipien Vol. 1. No. 10. United World Press Cooperative. Newcastle, CA. [1971].
Early issue of Rama Pipien (loosely translated, per Fulton’s International Directory of Little Magazines and Small Presses (1974) , as “Holy Frog System”), a project of the United World Press Cooperative, featuring staff articles as well as significant writings from a national network of underground and community newspapers. This issue includes “I Quit” by Abbie Hoffman, originally published in Win, and “China Thru A Panther’s Eye” by Huey Newton, as well as a review of the 1970 film “Five Easy Pieces” from radical feminist Pam Kearon and comics by Frank Smith, Bill Francis, and Richard Corben. There is also an invitation to what would become the first Rainbow Gathering in Colorado in 1972. The publication would go on to earn an honorable mention at the Robert F Kennedy Journalism Awards the same year.
26pp, staple bound periodical. Minor creasing to spine. Some wear at fore edge. Pages clean. Includes numerous illustrations. Very Good.
