A propos de cet article

[all issues in at least VG+ or better condition, some completely unblemished, a few with random corner bends, dog-earing and light edgewear]. (facsimile ads, graphics) A collection of eleven issues of this rare photocopied fanzine (8-1/2" x 11" format, stapled) devoted to Italian "Spaghetti Westerns," containing articles (mostly original, but some reproduced from other sources, not always attributed), interviews, film and book reviews, correspondence from readers, ads, etc. The illustrations are primarily reproductions of black-and-white newspaper and pressbook ads; the occasional photograph is used, but the reproduction quality is pretty crappy, second- or third-generation photocopy. The issues in this group vary in length from 20 pages (including covers) to 44 pages, with the norm trending to the lower end, especially the earlier issues. The covers usually depict a major star of the genre, and are often keyed to related editorial content (such as an interview or filmography). The publisher and founding editor was Tim Ferrante (publishing in New Jersey), with Tom Betts listed from the earlier issues here as "West Coast Editor"; around late 1987 or early 1988 the publication offices relocated to Anaheim, California, with Betts taking over as publisher/editor and Ferrante thenceforth credited as "editor emeritus"; it also seems to have been around that time that the publication schedule shifted from bi-monthly to quarterly, after having been irregular in its early period. (The issue numbering is a bit irregular as well, although thankfully some of the confusion is cleared up by the 12th item in this lot, the Master Index/Directory, which lists the contents of all issues through #29. After the "Volume I" issues, they started the numbering over at the beginning of Volume II, but put only the *issue* number on the front cover, while sometimes specifying a "whole number" on the inside, e.g., "No. 14 (Whole #18").") Following are the individual issues in this group, with cover subjects noted; for the sake of simplicity and to save space, I have included only the *cover* numbers here. Vol. 1, No. 2 (1983); #4 (Nov./Dec. 1985; actually Vol. II, No. 4, but mis-numbered internally; Terence Hill on cover, Klaus Kinksi filmography); #8 (July/August 1986; Clint Eastwood); #11 (Jan./Feb. 187; Guy Madison); #12 (March/April 1987; Charles Bronson); #14 (July/August 1987; Gian Maria Volonte); #17 (Spring 1988); #19 (Fall 1988; Klaus Kinski); #25 (Spring 1990; Tomas Milian; special issue devoted to him, with an interview and filmography); #29 (Spring 1991: "Hall of Fame Winners" Sergio Leone, Lee Van Cleef, and Ennio Morricone); #32 (Winter 1991-1992; Clint Eastwood). I don't know how long the publication continued in this format beyond 1992 (at which time it was still touting itself as "the world's only fanzine devoted to the Italian Western"), but I note that both Tim Ferrante and Tom Betts are still around, and that both have a considerable internet presence.…

Description de la boutique

Welcome to ReadInk (rhymes with "Dead Ink"), now in our 29th year of putting interesting books into the hands of interested people. **** Although I occasionally lapse into the "royal we" voice, ReadInk is just me, from one end of the pipeline to the other: buying, cataloging, customer service, shipping, you name it. Nothing here is automated, and every order or inquiry gets my prompt, personal attention. **** In describing a book's physical condition, I employ standard book-grading terminology (Good/Very Good/Fine, with various in-between gradations as appropriate) and do my best to avoid both excessive jargon and overly-finicky detail. My goal is always to present a faithful impression of a book's condition and appearance; significant flaws are individually noted, or if too numerous are succinctly summarized. **** Books are more than just physical objects, however: they are also intellectual/information vessels, and in almost every case I also include some information about a book's content in my listing, even if it's only a carefully chosen quotation from the dust jacket copy. (This may sound like a small thing, but take a look sometime and you'll see how amazingly few sellers bother with this, especially in the case of older fiction, which is one of my specialties.) **** I take great care (and pride) in my packaging of books for shipment; I figure it's my responsibility to ensure that each book I send out will withstand the rigors of the U.S. Postal System, and will reach its new owner in the same condition as advertised. (A sturdy box or an unbendable package is always involved.) **** That's all there is to ReadInk: just a guy who has loved books all my life (perhaps to excess) and entered the trade in my "middle years" to see what I could make of it. And I'm still finding out. **** To view my inventory exclusively, head over to my website -- www.readinkbooks.com. ---- Howard Prouty, prop.…
