Boogie With A 1973 Hodaka Gravelrash Calendar ☜

Here’s a scarce Hodaka motorcycle calendar produced by PABATCO (Pacific Basin Trading Company), the Oregon-based distributor responsible for bringing Hodaka motorcycles to the U.S. market. This calendar has it all! Mini poster-style pages packed with absurd hippie humor and bold psychedelic borders, a larger pull-out poster, and inventive monthly grids packed with tiny spot illustrations and expressive hand-lettering. With its subversive tone and richly detailed graphics, it stands as a perfect time capsule of early 1970s counterculture. Sadly, no artist is credited, but the work is clearly influenced by R. Crumb and the broader early 1970s underground comix scene.
