Title: Ben Is Dead Issue #14. July/August, 1991
Description: No Place, Darby, Publisher, 1991. Wraps. No place (Los Angeles): 1991. Side stapled zine, more of a traditional magazine format. 8 ½ by 11 inches. 56 pp. Illustrations throughout. Single issue of Darby's long running zine, Ben is Dead. As Darby notes, she started the zine as a "forum and an escape," eventually using it as a vehicle to explore the world and a variety of experiences. While earlier issues tended to cover punk music and the punk scene, the zine eventually grew to cover a range of women's experiences and pop culture in general. (Green [editor] p. 70). This issue parodies a tabloid magazine on the exterior and contains several articles on politics and culture. Interviews with Pigface and Samba Hell, music and show reviews, etc. round it out. GOOD condition. General toning. Minor wrinkling and creasing. Good .
