Berkeley, Last Gasp, 1970. The first issue (blue and purple background on cover) of the first comic produced entirely by women: Trina Robbins, Barbara "Willy" Mendes, "Hurricane" Nancy Kalish, Carole Kalish, Lisa Lyons, Meredith Kurtzman, and Michele Brand. This comic was a spin off from the first feminist newspaper, also called It Ain't Me Babe, which was started by Berkeley Women's Liberation earlier in 1970. After the comic had gone through several printings, Last Gasp began publishing Wimmen's Comix, which ran for 20 years. Some toning to the pages; a bit of rubbing to the front cover; near fine.
