THE SAN FRANCISCO ORACLE (FACSIMILE EDITION) BYALLEN COHEN PDF

The San Francisco Oracle, published in the Haight-Ashbury from 1966 to 1968, was one of the most uniqueand beautiful publications of the 60's. It is remembered for it's extraordinary graphic design by major SanFrancisco artists, its rainbow colors and the cultural explorations and breakthroughs in its articles, interviewsand poetry. At its height, over 120,000 copies of each issue of The Oracle were printed and distributed, andeach copy was read by many people. The Oracle is quoted and praised in most of the histories of the 60's.Writers who appeared in The Oracle include: Gary Snyder, William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, Alan Watts,Stephen Levine, Lenore Kandel, Tim Leary, Michael McClure, Paul Krassner, Buckminster Fuller, CarlRogers, Richard Alpert (Ram Dass), Robert Theobald, Lawrence Ferlinghetti and others. Artists includemany of the great San Francisco Poster artists such as: Rick Griffin, Stanley Mouse, Alton Kelly, BruceConner, Michael Bowen and Gary Grimshaw. During the 60's there was an incredible surge of creativeinnovation in journalism. In response to the mainstream medias control of information regarding the VietnamWar, the anti-war movement and the cultural changes that were sweeping America, every large city, manycollege campuses and even some high schools created their own underground newspapers. Out of thiscreative ferment arose one publication that burst the boundaries of the newspaper format both in graphic andin written content; The San Francisco Oracle. The Oracle printed artwork in bold colors, merging writtencontent and artistic vision. At times it was difficult to tell if the paper was reflecting the changes in the newculture or originating them. Its style and technical innovations were copied by many of the alternative papersand some of the more adventurous mainstream media. The Oracle is now a cherished legend. Those whoremember it compare its beauty to the medieval illuminated manuscripts and the illustrated books of Blakeand Dori.

But I love the Haight Ashbury movement, what theycontinued, what they started, what they finished, the questions, the answers, music, paintings, tolerance andfailure, religion, psychedelic trips and mind exploration. LSD and banana joints. The art and articles aregreat..., Snyder, Leary, Guinsberg, Kandel... If you are interested in the beat generation, the hippies or theKesey connection, just buy it.

16 of 16 people found the following review helpful.Bring The Color Gold, Bring Photos of Personal Saints...By James E. CarruthAfter viewing Allan Cohen's slide show history on the "Haight-Ashbury in the 60s" CD-Rom, I decided tobuy the SF Oracle Facsimile Edition. It is a beautifully crafted treasure trove, which allows you to go back intime and revisit the days of Haight-Ashbury in its purest form, from the point of view of the artists andmystics of the day.Though I was only 12 years old during the Summer of Love, I used to shop on Haight Street until one day Iwas told I couldn't go down there anymore because of the Hippies. Of course I went anyway, and becamehooked on the colorful posters and music. Let this book be your guide to a really interesting time in ourhistory.
