Seattle: Trak News Agnecy-Luddite Syndicate Publications, 1971. Tabloid. Good. Item #015093
ISBN: noisbn

Side folding tabloid newspaper with a color front cover. Approximately 16 by 11 ½ inches. 20 pp., including covers. Comics, photos and illustrations throughout. Published by the Seattle Liberation Front, the newspaper was "brazenly militant" (Seattle Star website, 9/11/2015) and wrote on a variety of counterculture, left wing, and radical subjects. As the Seattle Star notes, "Sabot's collective staff crucially included local radical feminists among its leadership, and thus its pages featured critiques of male chauvinism within the contemporary antiwar and black liberation movements." It ceased publishing in 1971, due to infighting among the staff that clashed over feminism and male chauvinism. Several members of Sabot formed the George Jackson Brigade collective, which ended at a shootout during a botched bank robbery. News/pieces on Vietnam, Laos, the FLQ, a short piece on gay news and events, etc. GOOD condition. Large handwritten "brothers and sisters please please please exchange" on the front cover in red ink. Horizontal fold crease present. Moderate browning. Minor soiling and wrinkling. A few small tears along the extremities.

Price: $75.00
