This book is the first to document this late 70s and early 80s sub culture and presents hundreds of the funniest, strangest and most intriguing Eyeball cards from across the uk. These are the mysterious business cards of ‘breakers’ exchanged when British CB enthusiasts would meet up in person after chatting on the airwaves. These alternate identities are sometimes amusing, occasionally mundane, dark or bawdy, but always personal creations — flotsam from a more innocent analogue world.David Titlow is a highly regarded photographer who won the coveted Taylor Wessing Portrait Prize in 2014. His work regularly appears in Vanity Fair, Esquire, The Sunday Times and The Telegraph. William Hogan is a writer and ghost writer whose work spans creative entities as diverse as Puss Puss magazine, Channel 4 and Lionsgate. Eyeball Cards is part of the Four Corners Irregulars, a series about modern British visual history.
