The Storefront Classroom - a Utopian Newspaper

I found this at an antique store in Ashland, OR, but it was published San Francisco in 1975. I think it's pretty awesome but can't find any info anywhere on the web. if anyone knows anything, drop me an email. I'd love to get some other copies.

The thing that I love about it is that it's almost all hand drawn. Of course, the VW ads - FREAK VW MECHANICS! - are awesome. I put a few more of the ads up since they are really cool.

this was a cult (minor) of pseudo intellectual folk from my neighborhood that I checked ou maybe 79 or 80, they had a buncha folk, and a sleep with a different one each night thing going on, I looked it up a few years ago and they all went to Hawaii but the main guy died, they had a cool magazine tho used to read it all the time

The newspaper is mentioned as one of the publications of the Kerista commune in San Francisco. Visit their website for their history.
