Freaky, Anarchist Comics, 1973
"Freaky - Israel's most stoned children's magazine", comics [illustrated by Ido Amin]. [Tel Aviv, 1973].
Satirical comic book slamming militarism, patriotism and conservativism in Israel, mocking the government and encouraging the use of drugs.
The booklet was created by 17-year old Ido Amin; illustration are singed Acido, a name implying the use of LSD. The booklet has two parts, with two front cover pages - and its two parts are printed upside down from each other. The second cover is titled A [anarchism].
The strip was created in the summer of 1973, shortly before the 1973 War, by a group of teenagers in Tel Aviv. Towards the end of 1973, after the cease fire, Freaky's creators were arrested under the charges of inciting rebellion and cooperation with Syrian intelligence in an effort to 'harm national morale." When no connection with the Syrians could be found the charge was changed to "Disseminating indecent material." The authors were convicted in a magistrates court but were acquitted by a district court.
[44] pages. 24 cm. Good condition. Slight wear, tear in back cover with slight loss.
A printed page titled 'The Black Front, a Trippy Anarchist Group,' is enclosed to the issue, protesting the 1973 War and wars in general. The Post Office Box number on the flier is identical to Freaky's POB.
