The play was first conceived as a faux boxing poster by McClure who was then inspired to write a play. The drama was first performed in late 1965 and sporadically thereafter, typically resulting in canceled performances or arrests by the police for obscenity. With the help of the ACLU, all charges were eventually dropped. This performance at the Wharf Theatre in San Francisco was one of the play's earliest uninterrupted runs with blurbs from Norman Mailer, Allen Ginsberg, and Kenneth Tynan. The play won an Obie awards for Best Director and Best Actress for the 1967 season. Scarce.…

A bit skinned on the verso where tape has been removed, else very near fine. Poster for the 1968 Los Angeles premiere of the play, where it had migrated after productions had been shut down in both New York and San Francisco for the simulated oral sex scene in the play. The cast of the L.A. production were arrested 14 nights in a row. In a letter to Stan Brakhage in September 1968, McClure complained, "I'll have to return to L.A. for the opening of the trial of Beard, which starts September 16." The poster was designed by Wallace Berman, publisher of *Semina* and considered by some as the "Father of Assemblage Art," who also provided the photograph of his bare-breasted wife Shirley seen holding a worn pair of boots which graces the poster.
