MCLUHAN, Marshall

$2,500.00 Sale

In the same year that Wyndham Lewis published "Self Condemned", Marshall McLuhan took inspiration from Lewis's journal "BLAST" and produced "COUNTERBLAST," intended to shake the city of Toronto out of what he considered its smugness, complacency and spiritual sluggishness. This preliminary self-published edition was later expanded and republished commercially by McClelland & Stewart in 1969.
