Series VI: Papers, Photographs, and Slides, circa, 1960-2007

Series VI contains correspondence, printed ephemera, periodicals, photographs, and slides created or collected by Bob Fass throughout his life and career. Many of the materials in Series VI relate to recordings in the first five series of the collection. For example, photographs of the February 1967 Fly-In—recordings of which can be found in Series I.1—are included in Series VI. Other materials in the series document Bob Fass's political and musical interests, personal life, and Greenwich Village counterculture more broadly.

Photographic prints are generally black and white, while slides are in full color.
