The first issue of Cinim (1966), produced by the LFMC resonates with its harsh, monochrome 'film frame' cover and Tony Rayns's design for the first Cinema Rising (1972) plays with mainstream cinema iconography.

The editorial for the first issue of Independent Cinema (1970) calls for a challenge to the "Hierarchy of film-maker, distributor, exhibitor and audience" and an aim to "Refine the level of cinematic awareness in this country". This captures the polemical mood of much of the alternative press of the time and writings on film in magazines like Image (1967) and long defunct timepieces such as Cinemantics (1970, 3 issues).

The clean typography of Gloucester College of Art's magazine Link (1968) contrasts with the homemade aesthetic of Annabel Nicolson's Readings (1977). Bob Cobbing's playful 'programme' for Late Night Underground Film (1967) at the Roundhouse is a valuable document of alternative film history.

As with the other sections in this exhibition these are a very small sample of potential additions to the site. They only represent examples of some of the kinds of materials that can be found at the Study Collection and have been chosen exclusively because of their particular design and relationship to their historical period.
