Article / Memoir Excerpt (part of House Oversight production) • 1.19 MB

This document appears to be a page from an article or memoir (likely by Paul Krassner) titled 'Remembering Lenny Bruce.' It discusses the 50th anniversary of the comedian's death, asserting it was not a suicide, and recounts a 1959 meeting between the author and Bruce regarding obscenity laws and the magazine 'The Realist.' While the document bears a 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT' Bates stamp, suggesting it was part of a larger government document production, the text on this specific page does not contain references to Jeffrey Epstein.
