The Morning Star scrapbook
Work detail
"This is a scrapbook of photos from the closets and drawers of the Morning Star Ranch tribal family. The news clippings are mostly from the Santa Rosa Press Democrat and the San Francisco Chronicle. They describe the unintentional media event created by Lou Gottlieb and his 'guests' on his 31-acre ranch in California's Sonoma County during the late 'sixties and early 'seventies. Dope, nudity, uninhibited sex, sanitation and building code vilations caused a crisis in the rural neighborhood and brought the county officials out in force. But the significance of these issues were and still are revoltuionary as they question basic American assumptions about private ownership of land, exclusive relationships between people as well as 'what to do with the shit!" -- p. [i].
