TV TIMES - THE COMPLETE SERIES FOR
SALE
Between 1980-1984, members of TV Smith's fan club received
a free fanzine, running from two to twenty pages, for 43 issues.
The entire series has now been archived on CD, 357 black/white
pages of text and images (.bmp) comprising a priceless 357
page archive not only of TV Smith, Adverts and TV Smith's
Explorers news, interviews, reviews etc, but also a wealth
of related artists... Richard Strange (including a 1981 interview),
Doctors of Madness (including a complete band history), Lords
of the New Church (three very early interviews, pre-first
album), Ian Mitchell Band, Last Touch, many more.
Includes discographies, biographies, family trees, press cuttings,
much more. Unpublished in any other form. Photos were taken
from one of no more than three surviving complete sets, and
reflect the occasionally haphazard photocopying that characterized
the series - however, all are readable, while the bmp/bitmap
format allows the user to print and reconfigure pages at will.
Disc also includes a couple of unpublished issues, and color
originals of several covers.
PRICE $15 + shipping: $1 USA, $2 international.
