If you’ve visited an Alasdair Gray mural then you’ve most likely come across the sign writing skills of Robert Salmond, a trained sign painter who worked with Alasdair since the early 1980s. We’ve been recording him for a new educational resource on Gray’s murals, coming soon!

this is very cool and casts an interesting light on the visual culture of political mags of the period (I'm guessing early 70s)

Spent yesterday in Lanark with the Dorothy K. Haynes archive, reading more rare gems and unknown stories.
Came across this nice wee chapbook. @AGrayArchive @scotlit
