The Chicago Seed was an underground newspaper published biweekly in Chicago, Illinois from May 1967[1] to 1974; there were 121 issues published in all. It was notable for its colorful psychedelic graphics and its eclectic, non-doctrinaire radical politics. Important events covered by Seed writers and artists were the trial of the Chicago Eight, Woodstock, and the murder of Fred Hampton.[2] At its peak, the Seed circulated between 30,000 and 40,000 copies, with national distribution.[citation needed]
