From a spiffy calendar done a few years back by a Brooklyn non-profit, to benefit a local queer youth shelter. Remakes of old dyke paperback covers, using local queers. These two are a for-reals couple, raising a family together.

Artist Eva Weiss. 'The Kiss-Butch Femme' This has been published several times in different books. If anyone has a website for her, PLEASE post the link, will you? Damned good photographer, one of my favorites.

Butch femme couple at Mona's, an old dyke/queer bar. I think it was in NYC, but I'd have to look it up. Taken sometime in the 1950's.

Thanks! I was a little worried that I was over-doing it. Very glad you are enjoying the show!

Okay just found this one online. I'd never seen this one before. I think it's from the 1960's.
The website apparently is a collection of essays. I'm going to check it out myself eventually. In the meantime, here is the site if you want to look the essays up yourself. sitemaker dot umich dot edu forward slash lesbianhistories forward slash Hopefully that will get you to the right spot.

And the photo...

Okay, gonna post a couple of photos here of Leslie Feinberg, a personal hero of mine.
This is a still from the documentary 'Outlaw' which you will only see if you can catch it as a film festival. No folks, it's not for sale to individuals. More's the pity.

This is a still from a documentary, 'A Persistent Desire'. I think it said photographer is Lenn Keller. Very handsome older butch femme couple. Yes, I know most of these are of couples. Sorry.

Oh, just follow this back to the website for info on the doc.
