AI notes: In 1967, Jim Morrison became a sex symbol as The Doors rose to fame with their hit debut album. His brooding looks, deep voice, and provocative stage presence captivated audiences. During the "Summer of Love," Morrison's rebellious attitude, sensual performances, and refusal to conform to media censorship solidified his image as a dark, magnetic rock icon.
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.
