Description:
U.S.A.: ITC, 1975. First Edition. Published to celebrate the hundredth anniversary of the American typewriter, with designers Joel Kaden and Tony Stan reinvigorating the font by dispensing with its rigid spacing. "On every standard typewriter, there's a metal bar with a row of teeth spaced exactly one-tenth of an inch apart. In 1874 this famous bar lifted the typewriter from the inventor's bench and placed it in the office where it changed our reading habits, modified our concepts of legibility, and eventually opened the world of business to women." Bound in stapled colour paper wrappers, 340 mm x 153 mm, 27 pages, a near fine copy.

London: International Times (IT), 1968. Andre Bertram. This issue is most notable for its cover: as the editor explains, 'Our front page is a found object. We found it flyposted to the building that houses our offices...' In fact, the cover is actually a translation of an original Situationist poster produced in October 1967 to announce the publication of "Internationale Situationniste" #11. This cover is probably the single most iconic English-language Situationist artifact. Words by Raoul Vaneigem, graphics by Andre Bertram. Other contents include: Allen Ginsberg, "The Maharishi and Me"; "Three Views on the Anti-University" by Harold Norse, Alexander Trocchi and Robert Tasher; "Family Dog" and "Middle Earth" advertisements; J.G. Ballard's poem "Why I Want to F..k Ronald Reagan"; international reports from Sweden, Manila, New York and Germany; centrespread "IT Supports Dick Gregory for President of the United States"; a page of letters about censorship from Tom Maschler, John Calder, Marion Boyars…
