1981ref. 7755San Francisco CA: the artist 1981. Handbill 21.5 x 13.5 cm. one leaf printed recto only. Illustrated. Date from ink stamp on verso "1981". Handbill for a performance perhaps the first in which Lesbian entertainer Carol Roberts "Comes out as a Foodsexual". A photographic image of Roberts shows her engaging a large bag of M&Ms. Roberts operated at the nexus of comedian and performance artist. Records of her performances are clustered in the early 1980s at Bay Area clubs including the Other Café the Boarding House and Fanny's Cabaret. In a February 1982 issue of the S.F. Examiner Bill Mandel reviews a show in which Roberts shared the bill with three other women including Paula Poundstone. Mandel wrote "Roberts also admitted to being a foodsexual. She offered tips on spotting habits with the foodsexual community. If the fork is worn protruding from the left rear pocket the person is into feeding. A fork in the right pocket means the wearer is into feeding. She ran through the erotic names of some candy bars particularly favored by the practicing foodsexual: Big Hunky Chunky Looking for Mr. Goodbar Butterfingers." A few small and light stains otherwise fine. the artist unknown books
