Freaks Literary Tertiary
San Francisco: Ahab Press, 1964. First edition. Paperback. Oblong tape-bound wrappers. Three issues of Hawkins' Freak Magazine are bound up here together. One of the more bizarre counterculture publications that came out of the Bay Area in the 1960's. Hawkins was at one time thought ot be the alias of "Wanda Tinasky" (an alias used when writing letters to a Bay Area underground newspaper which some speculated was none other than Thomas Pynchon. That was later disproved.). Hawkins was accused of murdering his wife, setting his house on fire and later committed suicide. Any issue of Freak is quite rare. This publication is the first copy we have handled. Five of them have ended up in institutional hands. Some wear to covers. Very good condition. Very Good. Item #33215
Price: $500.00
