	Olympia Press - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Olympia Press was a Paris-based publisher, launched in 1953 by Maurice Girodias as a rebadged version of the Obelisk Press he inherited from his father Jack Kahane.
		Most, if not all, Olympia Press publications were promoted and packaged as "Traveller's Companion" books, usually with simple text-only covers, and each book in the series was numbered.
		Olympia Press was also the first publisher willing to print the controversial William S. Burroughs novel, Naked Lunch.

	Maurice Girodias - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Maurice Girodias (12 April 1919 - 3 July 1990), was the founder of the The Olympia Press.
		He famously advised the group that the way out of poverty was for everyone to come and write dirty books for his new venture, The Olympia Press, which took its name from the similarity to his father's company and Manet's famous portrait of a courtesan.
		Copies of Girodias' Olympia Press title had to be destroyed before reaching the bookstores.

	SALON: Lust in the Dust Jackets
		That man was Maurice Girodias, founder and founderer of the legendary Olympia Press, literateur and scam artist, publisher of masterpieces and dirty books, jack-off of all trades and trader in all jack-offs.
		Olympia not only came into existence the same year I did, it was associated with my first orgasm -- an almost inadvertently self-induced event that occurred one afternoon while I clutched a copy of John Cleland's "Fanny Hill," an 18th-century erotic classic republished by Girodias in 1954.
		The earlier anthology, which bears the familiar green cover of Olympia's famous "Traveller's Companion" series (of which Girodias wrote "the d.b.'s fans were as fascinated by the ugly plain green covers as the addict by the white powder, however deceptive both may prove to be") is drawn from a much wider and deeper pool.

	2000 Mr. Olympia, Ms. Olympia, Fitness Olympia Press Conference

		The crowd this year for the press conference was a little lighter than last year, most likely the reason was the fears from the September 11th terrorist attacks, and the current fighting around the world having kept some people from flying to the Olympia.

		The press conference was cut with people still waiting for a chance to ask questions, but since some of the competitors had television interviews to do, and with all of the discussions from other long questions, time had run out.

	Unspeakable Visions: 3.3.0 - The Alternative Presses
		For the Obelisk Press in the thirties, the publishing climate in Britain was far too conservative to have permitted publication of works such as Henry Miller's; this was the primary reason for its being located in Paris.
		All Olympia Press books were automatically banned, but fortunately there was a bureaucratic gap of about six months between the publication of a new Olympia title and its banning as obscene, and it was within this gap that Girodias managed to sell most of his books.
		The Olympia Press had served as an important outlet for certain writers of the avant-garde, those whose works would have remained unpublished in the conservative social climate in the United States and Britain during the fifties.

	Literary Expatriates in Paris
		All were associated with the important expatriate periodical Merlin and were instrumental in the founding and early history of the Olympia Press.
		During both periods, the literary expatriates depended very much on the presence in Paris of a substantial number of English-language presses, periodicals, and bookstores, whose fortunes and very existence were in turn tied to the ebb and flow of the writer community.
		In 1968, the Olympia Press closed its doors in Paris and disappeared completely after a brief attempt to reopen in New York.
