One of my favorite musicians and artists, Archer Prewitt, best known for the comic Sof’Boy and band Sea and Cake has just finished the latest figurine in his series for PressPop, the Allen Ginsberg doll – authorized by Ginsberg Estate. Complete with glasses, book, and beaded necklace, he should make a fine addition to anyone’s collection of beat poet dolls.
The doll comes with a CD of some of Ginsberg’s previously unreleased live poetry readings, including Manhattan Mayday Midnight and On William Burroughs’ Work.
