For the background of the "Critic's Corner" area of the KEROUAC set, there was no better subject than ALLEN GINSBERG.
At first I considered using the younger image of him seen at left above. When I found the older Ginsberg in the photo above ( with WILLIAM BURROUGHS) and started doodling my graphic design over it, I knew that this was the right choice. The finished sketch appears at right.
Here the Ginsberg banner is seen backing the Critic's Corner ( BOB KALBFLIESH and MYSELF as the Critics). I took the companion banner "Le Sang Des Poetes" from this image I found in a book about Kerouac.
