About This Item
[San Francisco]: Zephyrous Image, 1970. First Edition. Very good.. Printed by Holbrook Teter, Michael Myers' iconic FORD marked the beginning of their collaboration and was the first item issued from Zephyrus Image. Alastair Johnston, in his ZEPHRYUS IMAGE: A Bibliography, describes how Myers arrived at Teter's print shop with "a linoleum block depicting a Hippie Jesus in front of car radiators brandishing a crucifix wrench. Teter knew at once he wanted to work with Myers. They printed broadsides with the block [...] and Teter drove Myers back to Berkeley where they pasted them on the walls of the City dump [...] This appraoch would signal the future for Zephyrus Image" (21). Scarce; OCLC locates just three holdings (Yale, University of Chicago, and SUNY Buffalo). A auspcious debut to this influencial West Coast artists' press. [Johnson 184]. Broadside. 13" x 7.25" approx. Linocut printed in blue ink on newsprint. Moderately toned, as common. Mild wear. Very good overall.
