Frank Zappa Mothers of Invention FREAK OUT Hot Spots Map - Rare

Description: Freak Out Hot Spots Map - Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention - 1966 Here is your opportunity to own a beautiful copy of the original Freak Out Map from 1966. With the release of Freak Out!, The Mothers' debut LP, listeners could send in a dollar and get this map of LA's counter-culture. This is a top-quality item that will look great framed. Note that the maps were folded for easy mailing, but still look fantastic on the wall. A perfect Christmas gift for the Zappa fan. Original 1st Editions were double-sided, these are one-sided. Don't miss out. Back story: My mother was in the industry and worked for Verve and other studios. When she passed, I found these in a box marked "2nd run." Verified originals of the map sell for over $1,000 if you can find them. I took one to a collector who said that because they are labeled "2nd Run," they were meant to be included in The Mothers' 2nd LP, Absolutely Free. Verve had spent $20,000 on Freak Out! and the album sold poorly. Subsequently, Verve reduced the production cost of Absolutely Free to $10,000 and nixed the idea of including the map. I have no reason to doubt the collector, but I am still selling these as copies.
