The Insect Trust Gazette was a poetry journal published at Temple University in Philadelphia.[1] Three issues appeared from 1964 - 1968. It was edited by Leonard Belasco, Jed Irwin, Robert Basara, and William Levy.[2]
The journal's name was derived from a phrase in William S. Burroughs' novel Naked Lunch about a "a trust of giant insects from another galaxy." The editors added "gazette" to it.[3] Burroughs contributed texts to the first two issues. The journal folded in 1968.
A folk/jazz/blues group in the late 1960s, The Insect Trust, took its name from the journal.
