About this Item

Tabloid printed on newsprint measuring 11.5 x 15 inches. Pp. 24 including covers. Wraps printed in color. Minor age toning to edges, else Fine. A well preserved copy. A solid copy of the Seattle underground paper with cover art by Walt Crowley featuring Paul Dorpat as Santa Claus with a pot pipe. Featuring an interview with Bob Dylan, and a two-year scorecard of Black Panther Casualties. Helix joined a burgeoning underground press then including groundbreaking alternative papers the East Village Other, the Los Angeles Free Press, the Fifth Estate and the Berkeley Barb. Founded by Paul Sawyer, Paul Dorpat and Lorenzo Milam, it sprang from their intellectual fervor at the Free University, an alternative thinktank they also founded. Eventually star-illustrator Walt Crowley assumed editorship. A pebble in the shoe of Seattle establishment, the "hip rag" brought attention to civic injustice by rallying its youthful readership to activism. The apogee of that effort followed the 1970 killing of students at Kent State: over the course of May 5-8, Helix organized protests that blocked US Interstate 5 while marching between the University District and rallies at the Federal Courthouse in downtown Seattle. This issue is housed in a removable, clear sleeve with an acid-free backing. . Seller Inventory # 9202
