by Tom Brinkmann. Headpress, London, UK. Large trade paperback. 263 pages. B&W illustrations throughout. Page numbering begins where Bad Mags 1 left off. More sleazy true crime magazines from the U.S. featuring lots of bloody corpses on the covers. Two full chapters on the Sharon Tate murders and subsequent Charles Manson trial. Devil worship and "punk" magazines round out the fare, with covers that scream headlines and show as much skin as possible.
