Baltimore: Women: A Journal of Liberation, 1970. First Edition. Quarto (27.75cm); illustrated card wrappers, stapled; 64pp; illus. Light wear to extremities, else Near Fine. Early, well-preserved copy of this key journal, the first national publication of the second wave women's movement. The journal was founded in Baltimore, MD, by four women - Dee Ann Mims, Donna Keck, Vicki Pollard, and Carmen Arbona - with the goal of providing a forum for opinions and expression that were essential to the burgeoning women's movement. The journal was managed by a collective, with each issue focussing on a different theme. The publication ran from 1969-1983, ultimately folding due to reduced readership and financial stress. Contents include contributions by Rita Mae Brown, Deborah Thomas, Eve Merriam, Brooke Spear-Williams, and others. (Inventory #: 48754)
