Shock! Horror! - Harvey Fenton

Great Britain, 1980: the dawn of the video age. With new video companies appearing on a weekly basis, competition for shelf space was fierce. Eye-catching cover designs were essential to succeed in this saturated marketplace. Video was new, unregulated and out of control. These were the outlaw years. These glory days spanned just five years, before a legal crackdown in 1984 bannished most of these outrageous videos from the shelves forever. Marc Morris was one of the few to rescue these covers from obscurity, and this book delves deep into his unrivalled collection.
