Item description from seller

[GAMES]. Ed. Chris Dahlen. Contributors: Majed Athab, Mathias Crawford, Kirk Hamilton, Simon Parkin, Mr. GIF, Rey Ortega, et al. "Kill Screen, Summer 2011, Volume 01, Issue 04, 'The Public Play Issue.'" New York City: Kill Screen LLC, 2011. First edition. English language. Softcover magazine with spine and full-color wrappers. Seventeen nonfiction magazine articles loosely premised on videogames with full-color illustrations. 9 1/4 x 6 1/4 inches. 11 oz. 96 pp. Shelf-wear. Rubbing at edges. Text clean. Very Good Plus. UPC: X00073H8D3. No ISBN. ASIN: B072PSJGRB. "Before XBox and PlayStation, there were arcades, and before arcades, there were playgrounds. Before playgrounds? There was just play. From street games to arcade games, public joy and public humiliation, the latest issue of 'Kill Screen' reveals how we're playing together. Simon Parkin witnesses a Dance Dance Revolution master hustling a crowd in London. David Wolinsky signs up for a Donkey Kong class taught by none other than Steve Wiebe (The King of Kong); can Wiebe teach him to hit the kill screen? (Spoiler: He doesn't.) Jon Irwin tells the troubled story of Nintendo's first 3D console. Brian Taylor reports on real-life Quidditch, minus the magic, but with the brooms. Kirk Hamilton takes to the streets of San Francisco in the Go Game. Filipe Salgado reports from the libraries of Toronto, Majed Athab surveys cut-rate arcades in Manila, and Mathias Crawford takes us back in time to the sculptors, dreamers, and underage crooks in San Francisco's oldest playground. Tracy Fullerton introduces the concept of masterful play. And Chris Baker goes up against one of the biggest stars of professional gaming with ego-crushing results.".

Store description

I sell uncommon art catalogs, academic monographs, and prints, as well as rare ephemera such as posters and zines. I ship from Brooklyn, New York. I am an alum of the Rare Book School and the Colorado Antiquarian Book Seminar, as well as Indiana University and the Ohio State University. I started in the trade at the Wexner Center for the Arts bookstore, and I have previously worked for the Columbus Metropolitan Library, the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum, the Art Institute of Chicago's Department of Prints and Drawings, and the Indiana University Art Museum's center for Prints, Drawings, and Photographs. More recently, I was the rare book cataloger at Donald Heald Rare Books, for whom I worked the ABAA's New York International Antiquarian Book Fair.
