- SIGNED
Collection of assorted ephemera and (8) eight tape recordings related to pirate radio in the UK and Europe, mostly from the 1970s.
Ephemera relates to the various radio stations (Radio Caroline, Radio Veronica, Capital Radio, RNI, etc.), and the boats from which they broadcast, including pamphlets, flyers, hit charts, postcards, stickers, photographs of boats and DJs, and more. The stations are mostly English and Dutch (the boats, even for the English stations, mostly operated off the coast of the Netherlands), but Radio Sweden and Radio Luxembourg also feature. The tapes have not been played back, or tested, and are minimally labeled, but presumed to be recordings of pirate radio broadcasts. Altogether, provides a selective but intimate evidential portrait of the just-barely-legal enterprise of pirate radio broadcasting through its heyday.
