Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First edition. Very tall side-stapled wrappers. Cover art by Emilio Schneeman. Fifth issue of this important small press poetry journal edited by Maureen Owen and featuring a bevy of generational New York School poets including Rochelle Ratner, Tony Towle, Anne Waldman, Lewis Warsh, Michael Brownstein and David Moe just to name a few. Published on tall stapled mimeo and printed on rectos only. Along with The World, also published out of the Poetry Project at St. Marks Church in the Bowery, these magazines provided an important and consistent forum for these poets and artists. Very good copy. A small blemish to the front cover. Early issues of Telephone have become quite dear.
Magazine. [52] 8.5x14 inch mimeographed sheets printed one side only with poems, prose, illustrations side-stapled in illustrated covers, toning at edges and covers with mild wear and soiling. Owen was from a horse racing family who worked the fair circuit. She was educated at SF State and was co-director of the St. Marks Poetry Project in NYC. She began publishing Telephone from St. Marks in 1969 as part of the Mimeo Revolution of which Anne Waldman, Judson Crews and Alice Notely of "Chicago" were major figures.
