The Outsider was a 1960s literary magazine published by Loujon Press. "The Outsider" brought the work of Charles Bukowski to national attention, in addition to publishing work by such notable writers as Jack Kerouac and Lawrence Ferlinghetti, along with artwork by Noel Rockmore. Loujon Press was the product of Jon Edgar Webb and his wife Gypsy Lou Webb who for the first issue painstakingly printed each page of every copy individually on an archaic hand-press in their French Quarter New Orleans apartment; later issues were printed on a slightly less outdated 19th century clamshell press. An image of Gypsy Lou graced the cover of every issue, sometimes as the sole subject, other times as a secondary figure (for example the third issue had Bukowski as the main figure on the cover, celebrating him as "the Outsider of the Year").
