There was another issue after this - 8:7 dated August 1977. These final issues came out at the same time as the first Solidarity National Group paper (five issues) was being produced in Oxford. That was replaced by the new paper Solidarity for Social Revolution in January 1978 after the group merger in December 77.

Right, thanks. Will update the description

Don't suppose you have a copy of it do you?

I guess the national one was the one which was called "solidarity for self-management"? Do you or anyone have copies of that? Would be good to have that as well!

Yes I have it and some other missing issues of the London journal. The first National Group paper was called Solidarity for its first four issues and Solidarity for Self-Management for the fifth and last. (All issues had a strap line with some variation of 'Paper of the Solidarity National Group'). I've got copies of them as well. I'll have a go at scanning them - probably over Christmas unless someone else gets there first. The National Group paper won't all look great - despite being printed some of it wasn't printed very well.

Did a scan of 8.07 and experimented to try and get the size down - unfortunately attempts at attaching the result in the library tonight have been unsuccessful. I'll try again tomorrow.
