Vulcher 1978

Vulcher was a short-lived publication from 1978, the last title in the zine saga edited by Bob Richert in Bloomington, Indiana. In the editor's words, "VULCHER magazoon [sic] is published for self-hype and self-abuse whenever Bob Richert can get EZ Edde to stop pulling his pud long enough to come up with something”. This zine was dedicated to The Gizmos, a punk band from Bloomington, Indiana, that recorded all their albums at Gulcher Records, which was owned by Richert, one of the earliest small independent labels and fanzines in the area. It also featured articles about the 1978 Gizmo's recording World tour. The sibling publications Beyond our control and Gulcher are also included in the RAPMM collection.
