1CENT

by jwc 3o2

1CENT is primarily a series of one-poem-per-issue leaflets edited by jwcurry that began in Toronto in early november 1979 as Pomez A Penny, published by Curvd H&z. its models were & are 3¢ PULP magazine (Vancouver, 197os, many contributing editors) & bpNichol's 5¢ Mini Mimeo Series (Toronto, mainly late 196os). along the way, many changes occurred, including the incorporation of other kinds of material besides poetry, invited guest-published issues & various kinds of group issues (initially collaborative issues with INDUSTRIAL SABOTAGE magazine). there are currently 2 subseries of "magazine issues" within 1CENT: the "newsnotes" (13 issues so far, leaves stapled at the corner (usually)) & the "communiqués" (1o so far, printed on used envelopes).
the group issues are (IS =Industrial Sabotage, nn = newsnotes, c = communiqués):
4o (IS), 1oo (IS), 136 (IS), 156 (IS), 2oo (IS), 2o5, 212, 233, 25o (nn1), 257 (nn2), 26o (nn3), 271 (nn4), 273 (nn5), 274, 282, 296, 298 (nn6), 3oo, 3o3 (nn7), 3o8, 319, 326, 33o, 331 (c1), 336 (nn8), 339 (c2), 344 (nn9), 346 (nn1o), 35o, 351 (c3), 352, 366 (c4), 369 (c5), 376, 378 (nn11), 379 (c6), 384 (c7), 388, 39o, 397, 398 (c9), 4oo (nn12), 4o1, 4o2 (c1o).
