The Robert M. Pirsig Pages of
Psybertron - Photographs
Prepared by Ian Glendinning , (Psybertron WebLog) (Pirsig Pages)
This is simply a collection of photos of Pirsig himself.
See also Henry Gurr
and Gary Wegner
for two excellent collections of photos of the ZMM Trip (including Pirsig's own) and of the ZMM Route.
1968 - Below, a colour copy of the most published image of Pirsig with son Chris.
This copy from Henry Gurr's ZMMQuality site.
(Henry has an extensive collection of pictures - many of
which are Pirsig's own)
This particular picture is one of three apparently taken at the rest stop on the evening of their first day of the ZMM trip between Breckenridge and Oakes, ND, though it has never been accurately located and it is possibly slightly earlier on the route. You can see that the paved highway behind them runs almost parallel to the sun direction at the time the picture was taken, with south or west to the right. If you have any local knowledge of this location, please contact Henry via the site link above.
1974 - Below, the publicity shot by Brill at the time of ZMM publication

to original source broken - temporarily hopefully
More photos from this set are used on Ant McWatt's site)
1995 - Below, a rare shot by Sijmen Hendriks
(From
an excellent album of photographs
of philosophers by Sijmen Hendriks,
Pirsig confirms this was taken at the "Einstein Meets Magritte" Conference.)
2005 - Below, a picture by Ian Glendinning
(From a collection taken at the 2005 Liverpool MoQ Conference.)
