Here’s the cover and intro page for the very first issue of PUB (marzo/abril 1999). This was a Long Beach based publication that was keen in its posh photography and chic graphic design as evident with the cover that resulted from a photo session with end of siècle buzzband —nowadays mired in controversy,—Pastilla. Que, que andaba haciendo Adrián con una capa en medio de un campo con vacas sabe, pero you do you, mate. The collaborators of PUB were was we’d now call “creatives” from LÁ, México City and other Latin America metropolises as it cover music, film, literature, and featured plenty of photo essays. For instance, one of the publication's founders, Andrés Montes @regiones_transitorias is now a consummate artists living in Madrid. Check out his work! Besides LÁ PUB was informally distributed other cities in the US and LatAm. Plus, the pub staff always had launch parties for each new issue. Too bad, the project itself only lasted for about a year and PUB ceased its publication by the end of the year 2000.
