Includes the scarce Volume 1, Number 1 (September 1967) to issue 180 (December 17, 1975). Bound into volumes, with most issues appearing in fine condition and unread. An exceptionally well-preserved and rare collection.

These bound original volumes contain an irreplaceable historical record of the gay liberation movement, preserving details that might otherwise be lost to reproduction in digital media. The June 28th Stonewall Riots, for example, are covered much later in the September 1969 issue, and unexpectedly not on the front page.

Provenance: David B. Goodstein (1932 - 1985) owner of the Advocate Magazine.
