THE FIRST ISSUE


Published in February of 1967, The Second Aeon #1 was only three pages front and back, held together by three copper staples. Only two poets, Peter Finch and Michael Newman, ultimately contributed their work to the "finished" product. Note the extremely amateurish drawings on the cover (first image), the striking yellow back cover, and the handwritten submission complete with an apology for the author's typewritter having died (second image in the second row). The other images are of mockup materials pasted to backgrounds.
