“A.D. 2200” is a poignant tribute to 22-year-old Guinean immigrant Amadou Diallo, who was shot dead by four plain-clothed members of the New York City Police Department in February, 1999. Diallo, a street merchant by day and student by night, was outside his apartment in the Bronx on the night of February 5 when he was spotted by four NYPD officers who believed he matched the description of a serial rapist who had been active in the burrough. The officers alleged that they had identified themselves clearly to Diallo, who had run; claiming to have mistaken the wallet he was carrying for a gun, the officers fired a total of 41 shots, 19 of which hit Diallo. Racial profiling, gross negligence and other civil rights violations by the officers were alleged. All four officers were indicted for second-degree murder, but were subsequently acquitted by a jury in Albany, New York in February 2000, after the trial was moved due to claims that media coverage of the shooting had made a fair trial in New York City impossible. Diallo’s family were awarded a $3,000,000 settlement from the City of New York in a subsequent wrongful death claim.

Edited by John Howard Lawson, S.T. Farquhar, a.o. (Hollywood Writers Mobilization). Precursor to The Quarterly of Film, Radio, and Television, and Film Quarterly, which is still being published. "The first issue of Hollywood Quarterly, in October 1945, marked the appearance of the most significant, successful, and regularly published journal of its kind in the United States. For its entire life, the Quarterly held to the leftist utopianism of its founders, several of whom would later be blacklisted. The journal attracted a collection of writers unmatched in North American film studies for the heterogeneity of their intellectual and practical concerns: from film, radio, and television industry workers to academics; from Sam Goldwyn, Edith Head, and Chuck Jones to Theodor Adorno and Siegfried Kracauer."

Small Compendium Books price sticker to cover of second issue, otherwise all near fine. Vale, then working at City Lights, started work on Search & Destroy in January 1977 with the help of a few hundred dollars from Allen Ginsberg and Lawrence Ferlinghetti. His intention was to provide a voice for the punk movement (a "total cultural revolt") and the new freedoms opened up in its wake. Later, he told Jon Savage that he had been inspired by Finger, one of the further-flung outposts of porn publishing: "Finger magazine was a great inspiration to me with Search and Destroy. It was an incredible, reader-written magazine on newsprint, stapled, a classic. All these people sent in their photos and the kinkiest stories. The most incredible, accidental poetic language. They did a parody of Patty Hearst, with a slavey-looking girl posing as Patty with a fake Symbionese Liberation Army banner. They showed things like sex with amputees, animal sex, everything that was taboo, they presented it. That was the aesthetic" (quoted in England's Dreaming, p.440. Faber, 1991). The sixth issue prints Jon Savage's first interview with Genesis P-Orridge (2pp.)., conducted in P-Orridge and Cosey Fanni Tutti's house in Beck Road, and their Martello Street studio, in late 1977, around the time of the release of TG's first album. The interview is illustrated with a photo of TG by Fizzy Paet, and Cosey Fanni Tutti's "Sexual Transgressions No.5" photo (one of the images displayed at the ICA exhibition). Accompanied "by friend Sheila" [Rock], Savage's in-depth interview ranges over a variety of topics, including punk, violence, William Burroughs, and Image Bank. Other interviewees featured include: Crime; The Avengers; The Ramones; The Clash; Devo; Tom Verlaine; Alternative TV (including Alex Fegusson, later of PTV, with TG references by Mark Perry); The Damned; Blondie; The Weirdos; Iggy Pop; Jordan; Patti Smith; The Dead Boys; Metal Urbain; Helen Wheels; The Screamers; Nico; Suicide; Talking Heads; The Nuns; Negative Trend; Buzzcocks; Pere Ubu; The Mutants; The Sleepers; John Waters; DNA; Roky Erickson; The Zeros; The Dils; The Cramps; Siouxsie & The Banshees; Chrome; Patti Palladin; Syl Sylvain; Dead Kennedys; David Lynch; Steve Jones; Russ Meyer; William Burroughs; and JG Ballard.

Second issue of the most fundamental and groundbreaking periodical in American art and literature of the post-war period, in particular Beat and Underground. It was published as an assemblage and distributed by the visual artist Wallace Berman (1926-1976). Its circulation never exceeded a few hundred copies, it was not for sale but sent to an inner circle of writers and artists which Berman considered his friends and the reflection of his personal identity. 'Semina was a cult magazine' (Robert Duncan); "the magazine depicts the emerging subculture's aesthetics and its values" (Rebecca Solnit). It was thus at the same time an early example of 'mail-art'. Berman himself contributed under the pseudonym Pantale Xantos. Contains: "The bead game" by Hermann Hesse, "Patience" by Paul Eluard, "Poem for Alice" by Jack Anderson, a poem by Mike McClure, a drawing by Jean Cocteau, a poem by Zack Walsh, "Incompatible" by Eric Cashen, a poem and, two photographs by Wallace Berman, "Its Living Now" by J.B.

Pasted onto back cover is a facsimile (replacing the missing original) of the manifesto, dated Los Angeles, Dec. 1957, by Wallace Berman on his arrest and conviction and the confiscation of Semina no. 1 because it "displayed lewd matter" in an exhibition at the Ferus Art Gallery. "I will continue to print Semina from locations other than this city of degenerate angels. "
