Item description from seller

"Avant-Garde," published by Ralph Ginzburg for about three years from 1968 to 1971, featured art and erotic literature and photography as did his earlier magazine, "Eros," for which Ginzburg went to prison on obscenity charges. Articles in the January, 1970, issue include: "The Dr. Who Called the A.M.A, the "American Murder Assn;" "The Virgin Forest," a photo essay featuring trees and nudes; "The Handwriting on the Wall," an article on separation of church and state; "Israel Captured," a selection of photos from an exhibition then at the Jewish Museum in New York showing everyday life in Israel; a collection of paintings by the Austrian artist, Friedrich Hundertwasser, titled, "Postcards From Pandemonium;" and "The Bigger They Are The Harder They Fall: The Memoirs of a Fat Girls' Casanova." First Edition. About 10 3/4 x 11 1/4 inches, 64 pages, bound in light card, full color covers with front cover photo titled, "Heliotrope," showing a female nude partially hidden by tall grass, and back cover showing five cartoon nudes above a five paragraph call for readers to submit "manuscripts describing their most memorable sexual adventures." Inside back cover contains vintage erotic photo of a woman and a bicycle. Some age-tanning on inside covers, o/w covers show only minimal surface and edge wear. Text also shows some age-tanning, though photos and art have survived the years remarkably well. Covers and text show almost no tearing, creasing or bumping. Magazine is complete, clean and unmarked, binding tight. A collectable copy.
