INTERNATIONAL POETRY INCARNATION.

An original glossy b/w photograph by John Hopkins of the Albert Hall Poetry Reading's main participants assembled for a press conference on the steps of the Albert Memorial, June 10, 1965.

20.3x25.4cm. Photographer's printed caption label to verso, dated 1999.

The image shows the event's compere Alexander Trocchi speaking to a journalist, alongside Allen Ginsberg (looking to the camera), together with Adrian Mitchell, Anselm Hollo, Michael Horovitz, Harry Fainlight, Ernst Jandl, John Esam, Marcus Field, and in the background, Barbara Rubin, who is filming the proceedings.

Fine.
