a| 'Pages' published concrete poetry and artists' writings and projects by contributors such as Dieter Roth, Emmett Williams, Tom Phillips, Jochen Gerz, Richard Hamilton and Robert Filliou.

a| Editor David Briers explained in issue 1: "The aim of Pages is to publicise the avant-garde, and by doing so to prove that it does not exist, except as a name. ... Pages will inform on the changing forms of art at the moment, most importantly those which are reproducible in as many copies as there exists a demand for them (one to millions), and whose price is directly related to the cost of their manufacture, and not only to the reputation of the artist. ... The specific intention of Pages is to inform, and not to worry about whether art is necessary, for as John Cage has pointed out, we should by now have disposed of the Germanic concept of doing only what is necessary."

a| Rare copies; no. 1 does not include the postcard by Richard Hamilton, no. 2 contains the centre spread tear-out supplement: 'Perforation of the Hole', a composition by Mauricio Kagel
