1978 Not Another PUNK! Book

Description

First Edition, Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding, Uncommon

A visually pleasing work about punk style and fashion in the 1970s, beautifully designed in a scrapbook style. This work features numerous illustrations from photographs of punk fashion icons like Iggy Pop, Vivienne Westwood, Joan Jett, Sioux, Rotten, The Buzzcocks, the Sex Pistols, and more. 

Featuring a thorough history of punk style. Punk began in the early 1970s in London as an aggressive and anti-establishment movement. It was closely aligned with punk music, which emerged at this time as well. Punk fashion is defined by its cut-off construction, frayed edges, chunky shoes, and torn tights and trousers. It is also closely aligned tattoos and body piercings. 

Accompanied by vivid descriptions written by Isabelle Anscombe.

All photographs taken by Steven Johnston, noted visual artist who worked for Vogue in the 1970s and i-D in the 1980s. 

In the original bright pink paper wraps.
