Brass Lip, 1979


'A MESSAGE FROM THE QUEEN ON THE OPENING OF BRASS LIP...

...It seems ironic at a time when our nation has a female Monarch, a female Prime Minister and female members of the Stock Exchange that most women - despite their obvious superiority - see their role as housewives and mothers; but then, so often, this is thrust upon one. After all, I didn't ask to be Queen'.

Great visual appeal with this the sole issue of Brass Lip - all 32 pages of it look great. Design/layout - Susy Varty, interviews - Syd Freake & Connie Klassen, printed by Mosside Community Press. Fantastic content in this fanzine; the interview with Vi Subversa is a belter.

That's sorted now - it may be a common occurence - I prepare the posts at home of an evening but add the link on the preceding morning [really slow connection at home you see]

 Allied Propaganda Issue 2, July/August 1979 Any fanzine is worth checking out if you can spare the time or money, if only for the principle...
