An oversized sticker by the radical printers, Zephryus Image, and their contribution to the California water wars, inspired by the Digger’s proposal to divide California into bioregions, and thus have northern California secede from Southern California.

Zephyrus Image, active throughout the 1970s in Northern
California, was a radical print shop and press founded by social
worker and master printer Holbrook Teter and linocut expert
Michael Myers. They created a series of subversive, anarchic fliers and broadsides lampooning conservative politicians and pushing for radical utopianism. The printers worked with contributors such as Ed Dorn, Tom Raworth, Robert Creely, Joanne Kyger, Fielding Dawson, Robert Bly, Lucia Berlin, Gary Snyder, Stan Brakhage and William T. Wiley–and even published an early poetry broadside by the band Devo, one year after they formed, as part of a portfolio printed to commemorate those who died at the hands of National
Guardsmen during the Kent State massacre.
