DESCRIPTIVE SUMMARY
Title:
Limp Wrist collection, 1998-2011.
Repository:
Division of Rare and Manuscript Collections
Collection Number:
7848
Abstract:
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.
