Title: Hot Town Survival in the City; a Festival of Interdependence. July 4th Weekend (1970) Event Poster
Description: No Place, No publisher, 1970. Unbound. No publisher, place or date. Presumed Berkeley, 1970. Perhaps issued by the New Morning Commune, although no inclination of such is given on the poster. Single sheet, light blue paper stock. 17 by 22 inches. Illustration by Lars Svendsgaard. A poster advertising a festival at Ho Chi Minh (Willard) Park in Berkeley, featuring workshops, music, food and theatre. Urging people to "bring your collectives' vision to Hot Town," it appears this "Interdependence" festival hoped to gather a people from a variety of communes and activist circles from the Berkeley area. Ho Chi Minh Park (Willard Park) was used by activists in the area to organize and protest the Vietnam War. GOOD condition. Really, what could one expect from a poster appealing to a cross section of activists and hippies? General wrinkling and faint creasing to the poster, both large and small. Uneven fading, toning and minor soiling. Lower right corner torn off from the poster, with staple holes and tearing at the other corners. Street corner fresh!. Good .
