Printed by Holbrook Teter, Michael Myers' iconic FORD marked the beginning of their collaboration and was the first item issued from Zephyrus Image.
Excellent.
Alastair Johnston, in his ZEPHRYUS IMAGE: A Bibliography, describes how Myers arrived at Teter's print shop with "a linoleum block depicting a Hippie Jesus in front of car radiators brandishing a crucifix wrench. Teter knew at once he wanted to work with Myers. They printed broadsides with the block [...] and Teter drove Myers back to Berkeley where they pasted them on the walls of the City dump [...] This appraoch would signal the future for Zephyrus Image" (21). Scarce; OCLC locates just three holdings (Yale, University of Chicago, and SUNY Buffalo). A auspcious debut to this influencial West Coast artists' press. [Johnson 184].
[San Francisco]: Zephyrus Image, [1970]. Broadside. 7.5 x 13" approx. Linocut printed in blue ink on newsprint. Mild toning and wear.
