Bikini Girl #8 1981

Bikini Girl was a zine based in NYC, USA.

Issue 8, released in 1981, contains letters to the editor from friends and intimates and is illustrated with found photographs and advertisements. This issue also includes a interview between Gerard Malanga and Lynne Tillman and the useful “What every girl thinks of three minutes before surrender.”

Writers and artists included in other issues include Jack Goldstein, Harry Smith, and Jack Handey (Deep Thoughts). Issue 3 features a cover photo by Fran Pelzman. Photos from the iconic New York nightclub The Mudd Club were also a regular feature.

Bikini Girl is now in a number of collections, including California State University's Gerth Archives.
