[Prospectus] "Siberia" Frankenstein by UNESCO

  • Los Angeles: Charianne Kircher, 1960
By Charianne Kircher
Los Angeles: Charianne Kircher, 1960. Very Good. Los Angeles, CA: Charianne Kircher, ca. 1960. Pictorial mimeographed flyer (28x21.5cm). Uniformly toned and foxed, else Very Good. Date of publication based on Kircher's address listed as Los Angeles, 26, placing this sometime before 1963 and the introduction of the zip code.

An unusual prospectus for what appears to be an unrecorded pamphlet titled "Siberia U.S.A.," decrying the WHO, UNESCO, and the World Federation for Mental Health and their revised procedures for commitment ("No Jury, No Appeal, No Warning"). The design of the illustration, more reminiscent of a vampire than Frankenstein, is composed almost entirely using typographic elements.

We find no copies of either this flyer or "Siberia U.S.A." separately catalogued in OCLC as of October, 2025.
