Berkeley; 1968-1969; offset Poets John Oliver Simon and Richard Krech became partners in this small commercial printing shop where they handled outside work to support themselves as well as their poetry. Much of their publishing as Undermine Press was printed at Noh Directions Press on an old A.B. Dick 360 offset press. Krech describes the genesis: We drove John's van to Sacramento sometime in 1968 (I think) and picked up the A.B. Dick 360 from a garage. We took it to "the boneyard" at Fifth and Delaware, now near the heart of Berkeley's yupped-up Fourth Street shopping district. Many important documents were produced there, including The Berkeley Liberation Program as a slim chapbook written by some Weather people, among others, plus Tom Hayden; The Grass Prophet Review; "the White Ghost of Bobby Hutton"; the Telegraph Avenue Liberation Front manual ("socialism on one street corner"); the San Francisco Express Times (Telegraph Avenue Edition), posters, and more.
