Stopped by Last Gallery’s opening reception for the last 17 years of Dune Magazine.

Upstairs tucked in the corner were all these gems….for greasy hands to fondle..rare zines from Barry Mcgee, Todd Hido, Mark Gonzales, Ed Templeton…to name a few

The first person to contact us and give the name of Pez’s first zine series…late 90′s we are talking here…gets a very rare DFW mini zine sent to them for free….They will not be sold anywhere…very limited and only given to friends. Anyone ? pop quiz…..

(Ben Franklin not included…size reference…obviously)

Will Travel
Travis Conner

Days, weeks, months can go by and suddenly you realize you’ve been caught in the comfortable routine of life. Traveling has always been on the top of my priority list. So, when receiving Travis Conner’s series of 3 zines entitled Will Travel a few years back I was reminded, again, to get out of my comfort zone and pioneer a new adventure. These zines are personal photographic diaries of traveling by whatever means necessary, but most preferably by train. A simple message: get out there and find your own adventure while documenting the process. Travis Conner also went by the moniker Conrail Twitty, which can be seen while stumbling along many train tracks across Northern America. RIP, Travis. www.blurb.com

Next week the first issue of San Francisco Arts Quarterly comes out. SFAQ is a free newsprint publication, focusing on the community of arts here in San Francisco. It will be widely distributed to every art gallery, coffee shop and candy store in the city. Guess who will have their own page of zine reviews? SFAQ release party is next Saturday at the SFAI. Unfortunately/Fortunately I will be 5000 miles away on the other side of the world eating ramen and singing karaoke to my favorite metal songs. So.. I won’t be attending…but… you should check it out.
Long story short: I will be posting all the zine reviews online for you people outside of S.F. Got a nice zine? contact.
