Published by [Industrial Workers of the World], [New York City], 1972
The only two issues of the short-lived newsletter of the NYC branch of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), which changed names after the first issue. Both issues were edited and published by Bill Goring, a long-time NYC IWW member, and are written in his inimitably frank and humorous style. Issue one features coverage of a Prisoners' Labor Union at Green Haven Prison, NY, commentary on Northern Ireland, a brief review of Sam Dolgoff's Bakunin on Anarchy, and the exploitation of major league baseball players (!). Contact information and a short list of IWW material for sale on the last page. Issue 2 concerns an IWW strike in Long Beach, CA, Questions for Supporters of George Wallace, and small tidbits concerning union activity. Issue one three corner-stapled 8 ½" x 11" sheets mimeographed on rectos only; issue two one sheet of yellow stock folded (8 ½" x 11"), [4] p. Both in fine condition.
