1961 Cafe Bizzare photo...



Item # 701010

November 30, 1961

THE VILLAGE VOICE, Greenwich Village, New York, Nov. 30, 1961

* Cafe Bizarre in Greenwich Village photo

The front page has a photo showing the outside of Cafe Bizarre in Greenwich Village with brief text. (see images) This was a folk nightclub where Andy Warhol first met the Velvet Underground and became their manager. I suspect this to be an extremely rare item because their was really no reason to save it at the time.
It is worth noting that "The Village Voice" was an American news and culture paper, known for being the country's first alternative newsweekly. Founded in 1955, the Voice began as a platform for the creative community of New York City.
Complete in 20 pages, tabloid-size, one crease across the center, very nice condition.

Provenance note: This issue comes from The Village Voice's own archives, part of their in-house collection used to create their digital archive.

Alert: Many issues of The Village Voice contain articles and/or photos which some consider offensive, and are certainly inappropriate for children. Please purchase with discretion.
