From the WFMU News Vault: The Reincarnation of WFMU Poster
In the great tradition of WFMU-related art, here is a poster heralding "the Reincarnation of WFMU", created by an unknown artist sometime in the very-early 1970's.
As seen earlier on this blog, in the Summer of 1969, the WFMU staff walked out in protest in part due to pressure from Upsala College over their "far-out" (free-form) programming. WFMU was off the air for about 10 months until Upsala hired a new Station Manager who would run the station with "a more professional effort"
At left (click to enlarge) is a copy of this poster which a listener donated to the station. We estimate that it dates back to the time around when the station went back on the air in 1970. It is a seriously groovy flyer for the night-time slots, and promises "good karma" and that "a splendid time is guaranteed for all".
That good karma thing--is it working out or what?
