About This Item
np: np, [196-]. Very good.. Brief comic discussing science from a radical-left perspective,with the only authorial information being the name Bob Maier on final leaf. As the former collector notes on front, Bob Maier also contributed to a 1968 issue of the anarchist/situationist magazine BLACK & RED, published in Kalamazoo, MI by Fredy Perlman and others. The comic consists of pictures of scientists, with Marxian speech bubbles added; e.g. "If a scientist is to be a good observer, one must observe reality - never, never change reality. Changing reality must be left to the 'experts,' i.e., AUTHORITY." Scarce; OCLC finds two copies: one at Michigan State, and another at Northwestern. Wraps. 8vo. Unbound self wraps - two folded sheets. Very good. Moderate toning, surface creasing, and handling wear. Collector's penciled notations to front cover. Else clean and unmarked. [8] pp.
