WE MADE ZINES. WE'RE MAKING MORE. THESE ARE LIKE TINY BLOCKPRINTS AND TINY IDEAS AND NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC CUT OUTS AND MEDICINE AND VINEGAR BOTTLES AND LITTLE INSERTS. THERE'S TEN COPIES AND SOME OF THEM ARE IN GOOD GRIEF FOR A POUND EACH! WHICH IS LESS THAN THE COST OF TWO CHOCOLATE BARS BUT EQUAL TO THE COST OF A CLIPPER LIGHTER.
