Gay San Francisco: Eyewitness Drummer 335

Invitation, Rex drawing—with actual condom attached by the artist’s hand. On the con-
dom the printing reads in tiny four-point black ink on yellow-white rubber: “Rex Originals,
Fey-Way Studios, 1287 Howard St. San Francisco, April 8-19 [1978]. Reception for the
Artist. April 7, 8-11 PM, Admits 2.” Prime among the clever 1970s mixed-media pop-art
objects, and second only to Aleister Crowley’s ejaculation cover of White Stains (1898), this
“Rex at Fey-Way” invitation is extremely fragile. Drawing ©Rex. Used with permission.
