Blake: The Leaves Fall in the Bay Area: Regarding Bern Porter and Four L Colby Library Quarterly 85 THE LEAVES FALL IN THE BAY AREA: REGARDING BERN' PORTER AND FOUR LITTLE MAGAZINES By HARRIET S. BLAKE OR SEVERAL YEARS Bernard H. Porter, Colby 1932, has been Fcontributing his own work, his source material, and the relevant works of his associates to the Robinson Rare Book Room in the Colby College Library. Porter, a physicist who worked on the atomic bomb project during World War II and left it after Hiroshima, has been active in photography, illustra­ tion, writing, publishing and printing. He has been particularly interested in combinations of art forms and new and experi­ mental work. Much of his time during the 1940s and 50s was spent in California, where he contributed considerable material to little magazines and was particularly active in the formation and publication of four. The earliest, The Leaves Fall, was edited in Ohio from 1942-1945 by his friend Fred Lingel, an engineer. This four­ page leaflet, the only one of the four not published in Cali­ fornia, offered Porter a vehicle for his poems, essays, aphorisms and drawings, as well as an occasional chance to edit an issue.

    Archive from “A Secret Location” Small Press / Mimeograph Revolution, 1940s–1970s We are pleased to offer for sale a captivating and important research collection of little magazines and other printed materials that represent, chronicle, and document the proliferation of avant-garde, underground small press publications from the forties to the seventies. The starting point for this collection, “A Secret Location on the Lower East Side,” is the acclaimed New York Public Library exhibition and catalog from 1998, curated by Steve Clay and Rodney Phillips, which documented a period of intense innovation and experimentation in American writing and literary publishing by exploring the small press and mimeograph revolutions. The present collection came into being after the owner “became obsessed with the secretive nature of the works contained in the exhibition’s catalog.” Using the book as a guide, he assembled a singular library that contains many of the rare and fragile little magazines featured in the NYPL exhibition while adding important ancillary material, much of it from a West Coast perspective. Left to right: Bill Margolis, Eileen Kaufman, Bob Kaufman, and unidentified man printing the first issue of Beatitude. [Ref SL p. 81]. George Herms letter ca. late 90s relating to collecting and archiving magazines and documents from the period of the Mimeograph Revolution. Small press publications from the forties through the seventies have increasingly captured the interest of scholars, archivists, curators, poets and collectors over the past two decades. They provide bedrock primary source information for research, analysis, and exhibition and reveal little known aspects of recent cultural activity. The Archive from “A Secret Location” was collected by a reclusive New Jersey inventor and offers a rare glimpse into the diversity of poetic doings and material production that is the Small Press Revolution.
