Miles, Barry, 1943-....

The International Times (IT) collection is the archive of the first and longest lasting European underground newspaper, running from the mid-1960s to the mid-1980s. Barry Miles was the co-founder of Indica Books and Gallery and the International Times. Closely allied to the Beatles, who helped out financially, the IT covered everything from flying saucers to eastern mysticism, taking in contemporary music and literature. Contributors included William Buirroughs, Alan Ginsberg, John Peel, Mal Dean and Jeff Nuttall. The iconic IT Girl logo appeared on the cover of each issue along with a striking graphic image.
