i-D Magazine,

A group of i-D magazines for issues 1-13, 1980
all printed in landscape format, each with colour card covers, accompanied by a letter of provenance, (13)

Footnotes

Provenance
Collected by the vendor in the 1980's when working for Better Badges, London's independent badge and media producer who sold magazines and other items at the Lyceum, Hammersmith Palais, Odeon, and Clarendon concert venues, as well as many New Wave festivals. Issues 1 to 13 were the only i-D magazines released in landscape format.

i-D magazine was founded in 1980 by designer and former Vogue art director Terry Jones and features articles on music, fashion, art and youth culture. The first issue took the form of a fanzine, with stapled covers and typewritten text. Although it has changed over the years to become a glossy publication, it has retained its themes of youth culture and street style. It has become known for its innovative typography and photography and has launched the careers of the likes of photographer Mario Testino and journalist/author Dylan Jones.
