The Sundaes Issue — UK edition · global Vol. 15 Issue 8 · Harley Weir / Ben Rayner / Alice Dellal

September 2008 (UK edition; global Volume 15 Issue 8 editorial package)★ Gold Star object

UK regional edition of VICE's 2008 Sundaes Issue, physically numbered Volume 6 Number 8 and corresponding to the global Volume 15 Issue 8 editorial package. Its archival significance is strengthened by very early published fashion work by Harley Weir in 'Bubblicious', alongside Ben Rayner's 'At Home With Alice' feature with Alice Dellal during her 2008 emergence as a distinctive London fashion figure.

Condition
Very Good
Completeness
Apparently complete from the supplied front-cover, interior-feature and rear-cover views; not page-by-page collated. A North American/global Volume 15 Issue 8 copy is catalogued with a 'The Tales of Colt 45' insert, but inclusion with the UK Volume 6 Number 8 edition has not been verified, so no missing insert is asserted for this copy.

Catalogue note

UK regional edition of VICE's 2008 Sundaes Issue, physically numbered Volume 6 Number 8 and corresponding to the global Volume 15 Issue 8 editorial package. Its archival significance is strengthened by very early published fashion work by Harley Weir in 'Bubblicious', alongside Ben Rayner's 'At Home With Alice' feature with Alice Dellal during her 2008 emergence as a distinctive London fashion figure. The object also preserves VICE's local/global numbering system and the period's close relationship between free youth publishing, photography, fashion and American Apparel advertising.

Why this object matters

The very early Weir fashion contribution and Rayner/Dellal material give the original UK issue specific photographic and scene value. Retain Gold at 9.0; a North American insert is not assumed to have accompanied this regional edition.

Evidence limits: Apparently complete from the supplied front-cover, interior-feature and rear-cover views; not page-by-page collated. A North American/global Volume 15 Issue 8 copy is catalogued with a 'The Tales of Colt 45' insert, but inclusion with the UK Volume 6 Number 8 edition has not been verified, so no missing insert is asserted for this copy.
