Item description from seller

Issue #1: 55 p., Issue #2: 52 p. 2 Ausgaben zusammen / 2 Issues together. - Schutzumschlag Issue #1 minimal gewellt, sonst gute und saubere Exemplare ohne Anstreichungen / Dust jacket Issue #1 minimally creased, otherwise good and clean copies without markings. - ISSUE #1: P98a PAPER arose from an itch to put out a modern magazine that would take an ancient form-actual paper, printed in-house, for a select audience of people who like such things. So, combining the publishing talents of people we know and whose work we like, weve done it. We are from the United States and Germany. Berlin is our home. We are based in a workshop and gallery at 98a Potsdamer Strasse, where we house actual printing presses as well digital printers-and our editorial offices. We work professionally in digital and publishing; we all love print. In fact, we miss print. A lot. This is why we are printing ^ain, from scratch. A few times a year-with an aim of being quarterly-we will publish one long piece of fiction or nonfiction, which will take up the entire issue. We will also publish a blend of fragments and observations and essays on the things we know and care about- design, typography, fiction, fashion, writing, music, art. We will also publish drawings and typography and experiments in design. Think Bauhaus. Or Dada. Or even the Paris Review, the last magazine to be made by Americans and Europeans joining forces to create something that showcased words and pictures they found excellent and interesting, from the city at the center of Europe-then Paris, now Berlin. For this reason, for our first issue we chose writer Ralph Martins "Zombies of Berlin, a wide-ranging, wise-cracking, fiercely smart essay about what is happening in Berlin now. It is forty-six pages long. It is worth being forty-six pages long. As we venture onward forward with our limited-edition, unevenly distributed magazine, we will gather materials with our small editorial and design team and then publish the final product on a Risograph, a high-speed, high-volume Japanese printer from the early 1980s. The effect is a high-end fanzine. We will send this out by post to our colleagues, friends, and peers, and you can order them online to be sent to you at home. At Pg8a PAPER we will experiment. We will print great things. / ISSUE #2: THIS ISSUE OF P98 PAPER could be called the fashion issue, for it features no less an authority than Heidi Julavits-co-author of the eclectic Women in Clothes, with Sheila Heti and Leanne Shapton, co-founder of The Believer, a professor of creative writing at Columbia University, and writer of, among other gems, The Uses of Enchantment, The Vanishers, and her recent journal, The Folded Clock, unpublished entries from which we giddily include here. Heidis work is paired with a short essay by our editorial director, R. Jay Magill, about the time-buckling trend of normcore, an urban hipster look that found early nesting in Berlin a few years back. Normcore, according to Magill, can tell us much about the Zeitgeist. And because underneath our clothes we are naked, we have paired Julavits and Magill with the sometimes kinky, sometimes fashionable drawings the Portland-based artist Dan Gluibizzi, whose delicate lines and watercolors derive their subjects from the digital world-nude sites on Tumblr, mostly-and then find their way back, altered, reframed, decontextualized, and newly charged, into physical space-and onto the papery page. Heidis journal entries are also revealing, particularly of two things, one close and one far. Firstly, as all journals do, they reveal the authors quirky concerns and self-doubts and nonlinear thought processes, which issue from her secret worries about how she appears to others, the impressions she makes or fails to achieve, or her supremely self-aware take on her own feelings, sparked by events such as swimming across a lake and almost dying of hypothermia. Secondly, and a bit more meta-, the journal entries evidence an ongoing.
