Zines – Page 5 – Skate and Annoy

Skate ‘zine show update

I dragged my family down to see There is Xerox on the Inside of Your Eyelids and my daughter Kathleen took this picture of me next to my ‘zine Bodyslam. And that’s a cool shot of Garry Davis from the show. The Portland exhibition ends Friday, October 31 but it is going to New York […]

The calendar includes images of Jürgen Horrwarth, Chris Miller, Anders Tellen, Sascha Müller, Ben Krahn, Renton Millar and more, as well as still life photos of instruments, amps etc. from […]

There is xerox on the inside of your eyelids at PNCA

’zine show – hurry

Maybe I don’t pay enough attention to the art scene. There is Xerox on the Inside of Your Eyelids, a traveling show of 80’s skate ‘zines opened October 1, 2008 in a small gallery at the Pacific Northwest College of Art in Portland, Oregon. I just happened to spot it tonight when I was teaching […]

Bailgun - Magazine - and unrelated Video

Dueling Bailguns

Sure, we’re all about Japan here, but when are we going to cover something that often gets overlooked, like, oh, i don’t know. Say for instance, the Northwest bowl scene? Bailgun is a video put together by Steve Reeves. So this was submitted (Not by Steve) as a potential palate cleanser after watching the Overground […]

80s skate zine archives - Preparation S #2

80’s Zine Archives: Preparation S #2 AKA Preperation S

Somehow I missed this one, so I’m posting these out of order. This is actually the mispelled issue that was the precursor to “The Correctly Spelled Issue.” So maybe I should call it “Preperation S.” Excerpted from issue 2 “Interview: My DAD”: AAA – When did you first not skate? D- I’d say about June […]

$80\'s Skate Zine Arhcives; Perparation S #4$

80’s Zine Archives: Preparation S #4

Preparation S #4 is a big jump from #3, which was already quite good. The main difference is that instead of packing mostly photos of his local crew, Aaaron published a bunch of submissions from people across the country who he was trading zines with. Close enough proximity to the Clown Ramp doesn’t hurt either. […]

80’s Zine Archives: Preparation S #3

Issue number three of Preparation S is courtesy of the collection of Sonny Robertson of SPS fame. Preparation S is from Palestine, Texas, circa 1987. It’s all meticulously hand lettered, and almost every page is covered down to the last bit of white paper. This issue is mostly comprised of the “Staff” of Preparation S, […]

Zines from the collection of Sonny Robertson

More Zines on the way

I’ve just about exhausted the collection of John Drummond. I was looking at my collection of skate zines, trying to decide how to proceed, but the decision has been made for me thanks to the generous loan of one Sonny Robertson, whose pictures have appeared once, twice , three times (…a lady). You can look […]

80’s Zine Archives: Skate Punk #4

Skate Punk #4 is another from the collection of John Drummond, and the second one of this title. June 1982 is the date on this one, and it’s got a lot more pages than #2 which came out in January. Caballero must have been busy that year. Check out Skate Punk #4 UPDATE: Comments have […]
