Cliff, I think I wrote an article for that, on socialism and literature. All very sophisticated, I’m sure. I remember thinking how glossy and professional the magazine looked. Then I must have put in something even more awful and pretentious for the second one, and you quietly dropped it! But at least I wasn’t as fussy as Norm—although I would be now.

I’m sure I’ve still got my copy of the first issue at least.

Tangentially, this post inspired me to google “adam lent”. Blimey.

Sadly, I still get excited by the fact that I can move an icon with a mouse.

21 years ago !!!!!!! I still have my copies of issues 1 and 2…were there ever anymore? I remember the little room where the said Apple Mac was looked upon in awe and, more historically, the moment I first moved an icon with a mouse!

The very same one. And IWPR looks like it’s still going strong – practically an international brand.

Is that the Ben Cohen who worked on War Report at the NSS offices? With Tony Borden? (It became http://www.iwpr.net/ but without Ben if I recall correctly?)

So YOU were responsible for inflicting my designs on all those far-left magazines during the 90s? What’s the word I’m looking for … ironic!

I’m sure I have a spare copy – though it’s almost as rare as a copy of Blair’s 100 Days.
