Drayton, Tony, ed. London: January, 1979. Issue #16. Side-stapled. 11 ¾” x 8 ¼”. 10pp, including covers. Clip art/collage and black and white photos throughout. VERY GOOD.

Produced by Tony Drayton, Ripped & Torn ‘covered the punk scene in both Glascow and London,’ and offered a broader understanding of punk’s political agenda’ (Triggs p. 57). This issue features punk scene commentary, review of several punk singles, an article on Crass, political commentary, and more. The front cover has a short piece targeting Johnny Rotten, suggesting he is a poser in the punk scene.
