      First Edition. 21 x 30cm. Landscape format paperback, 16pp printed recto-only. Issue number unstated (October 1966), but the cover editorial suggests the first issue, and likely the only published. An obscure, energetic architectural student magazine edited by Michael McCafferty and Peter Major, with very forward-thinking ideas, including 'mobile architecture' (such as 'Monobloc' entirely moulded plastic bathrooms), a startlingly prescient article on computing and nascent forms of artificial intelligence, Jesus Rafael Soto's concept of 'Imaginary Space', etc. Contributions by Arthur Quarmby, Yona Friedman, Jean Clay, and Marvin L Minsky. Extremely rare - only one holding at Cambridge University Library. Some chipping to edges, and a little creasing at the side-stapled spine.
