Single issue of this haphazardly published "counter-cultural (underground) newspaper," from Jacksonville, Florida.

Also present is a full page piece on John Sinclair being freed, written by Jerry Rubin; a statement from Shirley Chisholm who was running for president; a full page piece by a Black militant organization from the Jacksonville area, expressing their thoughts on a variety of issues, etc. GOOD condition. Ex-library with a stamp on the upper front cover. Mailing cancellations and stamping along the upper edge. Heavy toning to the upper half of the paper. Moderate uneven general toning.
