Description: Gandalf, Amsterdam, 1964-1971. First Edition, Softcover. Very Good Condition. 28cm x 21cm (earlier issues smaller). 57 volumes, illustrations, some colour. Pictorial saddle-stapled wrappers. Text is in Dutch. A complete run of Dutch counterculture magazine, Gandalf, founded and edited by Guus Dijkhuizen (1937-2013). Associated with the Dutch Provo and hippie movements, Gandalf generally ran with a mix of art, literature, humour, satire, and nudity. Literary contributors included Gerard Reve, Simon Carmiggelt, Jan Wolkers, Simon Vinkenoog, Remco Campert, and Peter Andriesse. Though cartoon nudity appeared from No. 2, and No. 6 contained a centrefold "Playmate of the Rear", photographic nudes did not appear until No. 8 and it was not until No. 21 before bare breasts were featured on the front cover, as the editors stepped up their campaign against the Holland status quo. Early circulation of Gandalf was around a few hundred copies, making the smaller format early issues rare, but within a couple of years had amassed a large audience with circulation around twenty thousand. Complete from Nos. 1 to 58, in 57 volumes, with No. 9/10 being a double issue. Text is in Dutch. Most Very Good to Near Fine, some with minor creasing and general wear, a couple with a little foxing, one with small previous owner's name, and a few with old neat price marks.
