Tom Weatherly, Philadelphia, 1972 (Telegraph Books Reading)

The photographs presented here are selected from about thirty pictures of Weatherly during his visit to Philadelphia to give a reading on the publication of his Telegraph Books pamphlet Thumbprint in November 1971. The first three show Weatherly and poet/critic Ken Bluford; the next five were taken at Telegraph Books headquarters at 3524 Hamilton Street in Philly’s hip Powelton Village, with Victor Bockris, and in portrait; and the final photograph shows Weatherly’s Telegraph Books reading.
