Search and Destroy. New Cultural Research. Number 6. 1978

San Francisco, Search and Destroy, Publisher, 1978. Tabloid. Newspaper/tabloid format. 17 1/2 by 11 1/2 inches. With a center horizontal fold crease. 28 pp. Black and white photos and clip art throughout. This includes photos by Ruby Ray, Bruce Conner and perhaps James Stark (listed as a contributing photographer on the masthead). Sixth issue, featuring interviews with, and reports on The Clash, Pere Ubu, Talking Heads, Throbbing Gristle, Buzzcocks, Nico and others. Also included is an article by Nico Ordway on a large strike by American coal miners, highlighting the reason for the strike as well as urging support from the punk/new wave community. Search and Destroy was founded and published by V. Vale in 1977 while working at City Lights Bookstore. Vale received initial donations from Allen Ginsberg and Lawrence Ferlinghetti to finance this zine that he hoped would be 'a clone of Andy Warhol's Interview' (see interview with V. Vale on Examiner website, July 2009). Mixing interviews, articles and photos, Search and Destroy presented well-written pieces documenting punk and new wave music and their accompanying aesthetic. Jello Biafra called Search and Destroy 'The greatest underground zine I've ever seen in my life.' (Berniere and Primois pp. 218-219). Search and Destroy evolved into RE/Search in 1980. GOOD condition. Paper browned, with minor soiling. Moderate to heavy wrinkling and some creasing to the piece. Small price sticker on the front cover. Minor tearing along the extremities. Good .
