In the 1970's self-described prostitute and sex-positive feminist Margo St. James was the founder of the "COYOTE" organization (Call Off Your Old Tired Ethics) which advocated decriminalization of prostitution. Fund raising involved an annual hosting of the well-attended Hooker's Ball which gathered 20 000 attendees in 1978 at the historic Cow Palace. This very large original poster is SIGNED by the artist!
