Photographs, circa 1978
Series Scope and Content Summary
The series consists of the newsletters, brochures, mailings, flyers, and a "H.E.L.P.line" column in the Los Angeles gay newspaper, Data-Boy, by which HELP reached out to and informed its members. HELP began publishing a newsletter in 1970. In 1972, this newsletter was superseded by the Los Angeles newspaper Drummer, of which HELP was a joint publisher. However, the joint publication of Drummer led to infighting between members, some of whom had stakes in other local publications, and HELP's involvement in the publication of Drummer ceased at the end of 1973. In 1974, HELP resumed publication of the newsletter, which continued through January 1979, when it was superseded by Outreach: Journal of the Homophile Effort for Legal Protection, which lasted just two issues. The series also contains photographs from the newspaper and later newsletters.
