Catalog #26: Political Posters

Catalog #26: Political Posters

Boo-Hooray is proud to present our 26th antiquarian catalog, gathering radical political posters from the 1960s to the 1980s. The posters in this catalog span revolutionary movements and anti-imperialist struggles in Cuba, Angola, the Caribbean, Poland, France, and elsewhere, as well as anti-war and left-wing underground currents in the United States.

Shortlist #63: Village Arts

Shortlist #63: Village Arts

Boo-Hooray is pleased to present our 63rd shortlist, on the underground arts of the East Village and the Lower East Side. The shortlist compiles rare books, artists’ books, flyers, magazines, programs, and more, published by artists in and around downtown New York throughout the later half of the twentieth century and into the twenty-first.

Catalog #24: Beats & Adjacents

Catalog #24: Beats & Adjacents

Boo-Hooray is pleased to present our 24th antiquarian catalog, dedicated to the Beat Generation and its cultural contexts. From their earliest formations in New York City, to their gestation in San Francisco, to the explosion out of City Lights Bookstore and the 1955 Six Gallery Reading, the Beats touched every corner of American culture. Their work left an indelible mark on American letters and art, and broadly paved the way for the further aesthetic, sexual, political, and spiritual revolutions of the 1960s.

Rather than bringing together a collection of well-known high spots from the Beat Generation’s most famous writers, this catalog primarily gathers rare works by those less in the spotlight, works by younger writers who took up their mantle, as well as works by the movement’s most insurgent and avant-garde poets. Though there are some classics along the way here, too. Along with these, it includes material representing part of the Beats’ larger context — in their artistic communities, in the parallel literary movements of the period, and in the popular imagination.
