NY: Outerbridge & Dienstfrey, 1969. First edition. 128pp; offset b&w photo-illustrations. Glossy photo-illustrated boards; no jacket, as issued. Near fine, with light wear to spine ends and tips.
The uncommon hardcover issue of this coast-to-coast photographic essay of the American hippie movement, heavy on the Haight-Ashbury scene, and with numerous photos from the 1969 Woodstock festival. Photographed by the Swedish-born Holmquist, who later turned to a career as a free-spirited vexillographer. With an introduction by essayist and activist Peter Marin. Compelling both as a cultural document of the time and for Holmquist's sensitive eye.
