About This Item
New York City, NY: Birth Press, 1962. Softcover octavo, saddle-stapled in illustrated light blue paper wrappers with green lettering and decoration, 22 pp. Very good, lightly worn and rubbed along stapled spine and perimeter aspects of cover wrappers; slight discoloration/fading to cover wrappers and interior pages. Cover design by Tuli Kupferberg partially borrowed from Paul Krassner's The Realist No. 23. The brain child of Sylvia Topp and Tuli Kupferberg's Birth Press, Yeah was the black humor and poetry journal (self-described as "a satyric / a sardonic review / a sarcastic epitome / a chronicle of the last days") from 1961-1965, and one of many seeds in the formation of The Fugs in 1964.
This is the fourth issue with poetry from Earnest O'Brien, Mrs. Sara L. Williams, Royston Ellis, Martial translated by Paul Rogers, Robert Murray, Jim Tully, Jack Masella, W. Keith Kraus, Alex Comfort, Yevgeni Yevtushenko; a prose piece titled "Three Prophets" about Waldo Frank, Floyd Dell & Leigh Hoffman with 'postphet' post script about Tuli; the traditional collage centerfold by Tuli; more art, comix, contributions plus a letter advising on shackle and handcuff collecting from famed crime bookseller in New Jersey, Patterson Smith!
Also, tipped in by saddle-stapling at center is 16 pp. micro-pamphlet Kill! Magazine.
Please note that Yeah would often come with additional promotional materials and tipped-in printed matter---all materials present are described and in very good condition; and, this issue is sold as-is.
