First Edition. Quarto (26.75cm); twelve (12) five-color broadsides (measuring 20cm X 26cm), printed on rectos only and housed in an illustrated portfolio on glossy cardstock. A few stress creases and some subtle toning along the spine-fold of the portfolio, else Fine. An off-the-wall collection of free-form poems written by Freewheelin' Frank Reynolds, former Secretary of the San Francisco chapter of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club. The broadsides reproduce hand-lettered, illustrated poems written by Reynolds in the mid-1960's, printed by the Diggers, and issued the year after his 1967 memoir written with Michael McClure. Content ranges from personal history and camaraderie within the club to things of a more mystical and metaphysical nature - references to Satan, astrological signs, alternately written in an optimistic tone or with a pervading sense of doom. The mystical and metaphysical realm would continue to hold Reynolds's attention through his later life. After leaving the Angels, Reynolds spent 5 years in Soldedad Prison on an arson charge; while doing time, McClure sent him a book by Zen master Shunryu Suzuki Roshi to help him clear his head, which Reynolds credited with saving his life. He spent the remaining years of his life living in the mountains next to a waterfall, where he spent his days meditating in isolation. One of the most interesting documents created by any Hells Angels club members, one that epitomizes the spirit of the 1960's and outsider art. OCLC notes 18 holdings in US institutions.

Unbound. Zustand: Good. A collection of snapshots taken at the New Year's Wail concert on January 1, 1967 at the Panhandle near Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, with some accompanying images. Various sizes. Condition is overall good with tape remnants or shadows mostly in the margins. Several are captioned. The "The New Year's Wail / New Year's Whale" was organized by the Hells Angels as a thank you to, and a celebration of, the Haight Ashbury community for "crowdfunding" the bail money for their member Chocolate George after a traffic arrest. The Diggers helped to promote the event which featured Big Brother and the Grateful Dead (as well as Orkustra with Bobby Beausoleil, later of the Manson Family). The bands played on a flatbed truck, and the photographer was clearly very close to the bands, probably on the truck itself. Of the dozen candid photographs of the concert, all but one (the only color image, of some Hells Angels and their bikes in the crowd) feature the bands: Joplin appears in at least eight of them, and Jerry Garcia in three, with other shots of other band members in various combinations. Also accompanied by several other images: two color images of Joplin singing, date stamped in May 1967 (damage to the margins, although the images of Joplin are largely clear). Also with a color photo of a psychedelically decorated hippie crash pad, as well as another 14 images of several young men, presumably the photographer and his friends: one with a motorcycle, several in military garb sitting on a dock smoking pot, one on a ship's deck, and several overseas in Thailand and the Philippines.
