Comments: In a splicase, two softcover books, 30 x 21,1 cm, b&w and color photographs. Second edition of 25 copies, riso printed by Stencilwerk. In very good condition.

This two volume book gives a peek into early Dutch punk zines from 1977 - 1980, when Punk first hit The Netherlands. It is a rare collection curated by Matt Plezier focusing on the graphic output of the zines, from covers, ads, band pages, comics and collages. Most zines deteriorated overtime as most zines were stenciled, an inferior but readily available printing technique at that time.

Featured zines: 422, Artholes, Aambeeld, Everybody’s Happy Nowadays, KoeCrandt, Kots & Braak, Pedaalemmer, De Pin, Ramp en Ongenoegen, Razorblade, The Toilet, Unite & Fight, Use A Wall, Verziekkrant Geen Gehoor, Vögelspin, Vreemd, Watch Out, Zoölogisch Denken.
