Ultra Rare U2 Memorabilia


Original Mount Temple School Dublin, Ireland 1976 & 1978 end of term Magazines


With both covers designed by Neil McCormick ( Killing Bono Author) while still a pupil in Mount Temple Comprehensive school Dublin, these two hand typed magazines contain Bono's first known interview plus ultra rare essays and poems including student profiles on it’s famous students Bono, Alison Hewson, The Edge and Adam Clayton along with Neil McCormick and other musicians Stephen Ryan (Stars of Heaven) and Maurice Roycroft (Gavin Friday) Reggie Manuel  (Lypton Village) 


Mount Temple 'Inside Story' and Mount Temple 'The Ugly Truth" - Historical documents


Read about the origins of  the unique Mount Temple Comprehensive school in an interview by prefect Bono with school principal

 Mr J A Books. In 1977 with Punk rock raging, learn about Adam Clayton’s formative music views in ‘Aggro in the Pop culture’ and The Edges opinion on Frank Kearns Rugby skills! In addition there is a two page background description of the preparations that took place for the now legendary School disco that The Feedback and Undertakers performed as featured in the opening scenes of the movie ‘Killing Bono’.


More than any other writings, these two magazines will place you right in the 1970’s Mount Temple school culture and serve as important reference documents for the future. A limited number of copies were made and these two are first time they have ever been publicly offered for sale anywhere. As an investment they are beyond doubt a unique opportunity to own AND HOLD an exclusive piece of little known U2 history that has never been to market before.


 Provenance: Frank Kearns private collection.
