WANTED

Two sets of zines I wish I stocked / owned the whole sets – If you have any contact details or know them, tell em I want their zines-mags REAL bad.

FOFFLE MAGAZINE - Only the COOLEST maga/zine ever. I can’t even remember where I got copies from years ago, but It’s Australian, full of great/hilarious articles and A4. I wish I had the whole set.

The Great Unwashed zine – A5 and a big series too, and sowing machine bound . The lovely zine makers traded them with my [in]valid zines at the Sydney Zine Fair, but the email they gave me / in their zine doesn’t work… Maybe they didn’t like my zine???

One of my aims with the distro is to spread the world of zines are far as I can, which means going to, and planning, a lot of events and workshops, and making and distributing as many zines as possible…

SO. If you have an arts/music/other event that could use the DIY independent publication or ziney touch, then get in contact and we can sort something out. I love to travel as well, so don’t stress if you’re not in the SEQLD area.
