Hayes, UK: Sunday Mirra, Publisher. Wraps. Very Good. Item #015928
ISBN: noisbn

no date, presumed 1978. Single stapled format. 11 ¾ by 8 ¼ inches. Black and white photos throughout. 17 leaves, most printed on single sides, with some exceptions. A few leaves printed on pink or light green paper. Fifth issue of this British fanzine (according to an editor statement in a previous issue), that "re-appropriated the negative, sensationalist coverage of punk in the tabloid press for its own ends" (Poynor, p. 333). Despite its straightforward format, Sunday Mirra combined good photography and clean layout to present news and gossip on the punk and new wave scene dosed with a tinge of sarcastic commentary. Pieces on Kiljoy, Dose, 999, Toots and the Maytals in the reggae section, Wire, etc. VERY GOOD condition. Minor toning, soiling and creasing at the staple corner.

Price: $175.00
