1967158550New York: Slugs' in the Far East 1967. Vintage flyer for several nights of performances held at the historic East Village jazz club. Flyer advertises performances held between February 7 through March 5 1967 with performers including Jackie McLean George Benson Kenny Dorham Stanley Turrentine and Sun Ra and His Astro-Infinity Music.<br /> <br /> Robert Schoenholt and Jerry Schultz opened Slugs' Saloon named after G.I. Gurdjieff's "terrestrial three-brained beings" from his "All and Everything" trilogy in Manhattan's East Village in 1964. New York regulations forbade the use of "saloon" and the venue name was soon changed to Slugs' in the Far East due to its East Village location. By the mid-1960s the bar was hosting regular jazz performances and soon became closely associated with Sun Ra whose Arkestra would play regular gigs every Monday as noted on the flyer on offer as "Sun Ra and His Astro-Infinity Music." By the late 1960s Slugs' hosted a number of prominent jazz musicians. including Sonny Rollins Albert Ayler and Ornette Coleman among many others. The club shut down in late 1972 several months after regular performer Lee Morgan was shot to death at the bar by his common-law wife Helen Moore.<br /> <br /> 5.5 x 8.5 inches framed to 8.5 x 11 inches.

It continues: "Map of China's Current Situation" is a square color printed map with a scale of 1/2.95 million. The text attached to the picture includes the eight tables of "Fanli" and Zhiyan in the lower left corner and "China's national power in one spot" in the lower right corner. On the left side of the picture title on the top there is also Sun Yat-sen's handwritten notes on the current situation of road construction in China. The content seems to be written in 1904 or 1905. Due to the large area of the map about 73 square centimeters if the plate is reduced the place names in the map will not be recognizable so this book does not include the figure and its legend and other texts are included." . en-wikipedia-org/wiki/Sun_Yat-sen taiwantoday.tw/news.phpunit=4&post=6275 . unknown
