First three issues of the literary journal CONTACT edited by Jeff Goldberg, all published in the space of 5 days in December 1972. These initial issues containing Goldberg’s A Week in Philadelphia, and other writings by Goldberg, Victor Bockris, Andrew Wylie, Marty Watt, and Ken Bluford. CONTACT ran for only 7 issues, however after issue 3 there was a change in editorial direction with the remaining issues largely focusing on an individual writer and running with contributions from a wider pool rather than the focused combined output of these Philadelphians, from their young and heady days trying to make their lives as poets.

Minor shelf and handling wear. Issue 1 with a small soil to the contents leaf. Near Fine Condition.
