Pages browned. 280mm x 200mm (11" x 8"). 66pp. 'Tales of Terror' ' was a 1978 series published by Portman Distribution. It was reprinted under licence ma…terial from American black & white horror magazines originally published by Marvel Comics, including Tales of the Zombie and Brother Voodoo. Unfortunately, Marvel's licensing department had not informed Marvel UK (who understandably felt that they should have exclusive rights to reprint Marvel material in Britain) of the deal, and a formal complaint followed, which resulted in the deal being terminated and all titles cancelled after five issues.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Issue 1 one of 150 copies (of 200), issue 2 one of 50 numbered copies signed by the contributors (Eden, Bernas, Hiller, Shepherd (his sticker detached but present), and Bonvin) (of 260), issues 3-4 each one of 210 copies (of 260), issues 5/6 and 7 without statements of limitation. 4…to. Stab-stapled into wrappers. Unpaginated (42pp.-114pp.). A complete set of this magazine of art and writing (1974-1977), which was published co-operatively by the contributing editors. Each editor was allocated an equal space every other issue; issues 1-4 contained their work by rota, so that each contributor appeared twice. For double issue 5/6, each editor invited either one or two guests to share his/her space equally, and for the final issue (as it turned out) the editors agreed that any of them may invite a guest to fill his/her space. Issue 1 was edited anonymously, but (according to these details) involved the original eleven contributing editors. Each issue uses a different pattern of actual wallpaper for its wrappers, with no two copies likely to be identical. Each copy of issue 2 is also made unique by Hiller's piece 'Transformation', 'a distribution and relocation of the material elements' used in her artwork 'Transformer'. Consisting of 260 A4 tissue paper segments bound into the magazine, i.e. five cut from each of the fifty-two sections of 'Transformer', the work 'should be understood to be located in from one to 260 sites simultaneously'. Toren's work 'Print Off Print' in issue 1 also plays with the material format, combining printed sheets with sticky tape apparently for an offsetting effect; it is not obvious how the piece would have looked originally, which perhaps is a sign of its success. Other contributors include Carolee Schneemann, David Medalla, Allen Fisher, Paul Buck, Lynne Tillman, Fiona Templeton, Annabel Nicolson, and Anthony Barnett. Extremely rare as a complete set; the first and final issues are notably scarce, but accounts vary as to why this is. It has been suggested that issue 7 was organised by Howell (who was the magazine's main figure) without the knowledge of people usually involved, or alternatively that the co-operative had merely become stretched geographically. Given that two of the usual contributing editors are in it, the latter theory seems more likely, although one could combine the theories by saying simply that the project was disbanding. With regard to issue 1, it has been suggested that Howell distributed the issue very quickly, although it should be noted in the first place that there were fewer copies than of subsequent issues. There was also an elusive 'Wallpaper' cassette available separately, not present here. A slip has been affixed to the contents page of issue 5/6 to include Howell's contribution, and a slip has been affixed to the contribution itself to adjust the poem's title (from 'Depressed Poem' to 'Depression Poem'). A Very Good set, with the usual rubbing and light wear to the wrappers, those of the double issue inevitably slightly tired, having taken a few attempts to staple, the staples rusty on a couple of issues, and with some spotting and soiling to the page edges (not hampering the contents, although staining comes close to 'Transformation'). The strips of tape in 'Print Off Print' have adhered the facing pages to each other, which is not unique to this copy and, as above, the outcome might be a fair one. Signed by Editors.

Contact seller5-star sellerSaddle-stitched in wallpaper wrappers. The fifth and six issues, published as a double issue, of the British- and New York-based little magazine of poetry, art, and writing, readily identifiable by the wallpaper used as wraps for each issue. Published collectively by the editors between 1974 and 1977 across seven issues (though…there were plans for 10). Editorial duties shifted across issues with the first four issues containing an equal number of works by the editors; in this double issue, per the masthead, "each editor has invited either one or two guests to share his/her [the editors'] space equally." Though not stated as such, this copy is from the library of contributor Fiona Templeton. Contributors include Richard Bernas, Susan Bonvin, Paul Buck, D.L. Busenburg, David Coxhead, Daniel Dahl, Andrew Eden, Allen Fisher, Harley Gaber, June Green, Susan Hiller, Carla Liss, Anthony McCall, Stephen Montague, Annabel Nicolson, Richard Quarrell, Phillipa Rogers, Carolee Schneeman [sic], John Sharkey, Richard Shone, Fiona Templeton, The Ting, Lynne Tillman, Amikam Toren, John Welch, and Anthony Howell (Howell's name has been tipped on at the end of the list, though he appears alphabetically within the magazine; the title of his poem has been tipped onto the title page of his work, as well). This is from an unstated edition size. Very good, with wallpaper wrappers showing shelf wear and edge wear. There is a closed, 1/2 in. tear at the top of the spine and a bump at the bottom. The interior remains clean.

Condition: Very Good+. (ed.) Richard Bernas, Susan Bonvin, David Coxhead, Andrew Eden, Susan Hiller, Anthony Howell, Anthony McCall, Richard Quarrell, Bill Shepherd, Amikan Toren and John Welch. Wallpaper no. 1-7: complete set in six volumes (No.2 signed), London and New York, 1974-1977. Complete set of Wallpaper, a magazine of…art and writing. As the title suggests, each issue is assembled in wraps made of different coloured and patterned wallpaper: no two copies of any issue are likely to be identical. Issue 1 printed in an edition of 200 copies, of which 150 are estimated to have been made. Issues 2-4 printed in an edition of 260 copies, of which 210 are estimated to have been made. No edition information available for issues 5/6 and 7. Wallpaper's eleven contributing editors comprised a mix of artists, poets and musicians. Other contributors included Anthony Barnett, Paul Buck, Allen Fisher, David Medalla, Annabel Nicolson, Carolee Schneemann (in issue 5/6), Fiona Templeton and Lynne Tillman. Every two issues from 1-4, each editor was allocated an equal space (as such, work by each editor featured twice between issues 1-4). For issue 5/6 (a double issue), each editor invited one or two guests to share his or her space equally. For issue 7, each editor invited a guest to fill his or her space. Susan Hiller's contribution to issue 2, 'Transformation', makes each copy of this particular issue unique. 'Transformation' used material from Hiller's artwork 'Transformer', one of the last exhibitions at Gallery House in June 1973. 'Transformer' is described by the scholar Lucy Reynolds as 'a wall work constructed of sheets of tissue paper that, with its craft materials, haptic quality and glittering ephemeral surface, anticipated an emerging feminist-influenced art' in Britain [London Art Worlds, 2018: 148]. 260 A4 fragments were cut from the 52 sections of 'Transformer': one segment for each example of Wallpaper no. 2. In Hiller's own words, ''Transformation' should be understood to be located in from one to 260 sites simultaneously.' Issue 2 is hand numbered 47/50 and signed by all 5 authors on stickers on the penultimate page. Condition: Issue 5/6 has some bruising and soiling to the spine of the wrapper with closed tears and paper loss in two places. Internally Very good+. Other issues are mostly near fine or Fine, otherwise some rubbing to spines. Overall Very Good+.
