A pamphlet with a dark photocopy image of a pack of Solvite wallpaper paste and the words ANTICOPYRIGHT WALLPAPER ADHESIVE agitational, subversive and downright scurillous flyposters plaster them all over your town! STICK AND DESTROY

From the frenzied days of flyposters

From Unnatural or at least Graham Harwood and Matthew Fuller. A collection of entries (almost like classifieds) describing contemporary flyposters doing the rounds in the Anticopyright network, circa 1990. This was probably related Matt's book Flyposter Frenzy. There are some real gems in the 187…

Mute - mid 90s art/tech paper

This UK based art and technology newspaper took the format of a classic broadsheet, it was even on the same paper as the FT. It later changed into a standard format magazine, probably when the cost of newsprint went up. The mag is still going…
