Our good friend Roger Allen has created graphics for custom shoes made by Keds. They are available through Andy Howell's Artsprojekt website. You can choose your own laces and eyelets colour when you order!
LEMONS SMELL DIRTY
ArtJon Bocksel, the guest typographer for our newly printed 8.1 issue sent us this limited quantity zine made by himself and Bill McRight over at the 1026 Gallery. Each issue is xeroxed and silk-screened with 5 colours by hand. The zine unfolded and printed on the opposite side reveals a colourful 11 x 17 poster. Brilliant! You can get your own copy here if they are still available.
