DL is glad to announce the publication of Nate Orton's The Passenger, now available at the DL website and better motel rooms. Risograph printed in blue and gold by Kate Davis from the original drawings, which were made in parking lots and rearranged with packing tape.

A handmade book of pressed seaweed and snapshots documenting the family tree of a family of Azorean immigrants to California around the turn of the last century. I love the way it joins natural and family history.

Seaweed was an historically foraged food in the Azores , & I’m tempted to think that this was something of a talismanic vessel for a new life, based in a mode of sustenance from the old. The use of baling twine, that most west coast of binders, brings the geography full circle.

Throughly enjoying cataloguing these three unique, handmade fanzines made by 2 brothers in Huntington Park, California in 1962, documenting their obsessions with comics, book hunting and stamp collecting.

This last issue also promises a Volkswagen commercial on the cover, and it delivers. The final page is a fold out leaf clipped from another magazine, with additions by Paul.

A superb example of youth bibliographic and comic fandom in a lonely decade, and the overwhelming desire to publish your own fanzine - even if it existed in only a single copy. #zines #fanzines

Program for a 1949 performance by John Cage & Merce Cunninham at Reed College in Portland, Oregon (my alma mater). Tempting to wonder who might have been in the audience, as Lew Welch, Gary Snyder and Philip Whalen all were attending Reed at the time. #reedcollege

An archival mystery, part 1. Years ago in rural Pennsylvania we found an album of about 100 photographs that seem to document a circle of artists & writers in Greenwich Village and other locations, most of which seem to be from the 1930's.
