COLLECTION DESCRIPTION
Posters, flyers, handbills, lyric sheets, record inserts, cover art and other ephemera from Limp Wrist's performances in Argentina, Australia, Canada, England, Japan, and the U.S. East Coast (Brooklyn, Manhattan), Midwest (Madison, Minneapolis, Chicago), and West Coast (Seattle, Portland, and throughout California). Some concert advertisements state that the shows are open to all-ages and reflect their straight-edge rejection of alcohol and drugs. The documents show an engagement in radical queer politics, a critique of consumer culture and wealth, and an appreciation of sex-positive erotic imagery from the leather SM scene.
