For any of our readers who have been following the blog for some time will know of our love of self-published zines/ artist books be they the super lo-fi photocopied zines to the slicker digitally printed zines in limited runs.Our latest zine purchase was from Birmingham based artist Lucy McLauchlan. We spotted an Instagram post Lucy had shared with a link to her big cartel shop for a series of hand-printed link cuts she had done towards the end of 2017.While checking out her selection of prints we spotted she had released a zine and we quickly hit the purchase button.McLauchlan’s latest zine is the second edition of her Tauranga zine she released early in 2017. Originally a limited photocopied edition of 50, which was produced to coincide with Lucy's installation at Tauranga Art Gallery, New Zealand March 2017.Lucky for me and you Lucy has produced a second edition, this time she has had the black and white zine printed in a higher quality than the photocopied edition.Again the zine is an edition of fifty copies, signed and numbered by the artist. Each 53-page zine comes with one 1 folded double-sided poster (two colour litho printed on recycled, 140gsm CyclusOffset uncoated paper), one randomly selected 14 x 20cm postcard and one randomly selected 3cm pin badge all packaged up nicely.With only 50 copies of the second edition, you don't want to sleep on this. Pick up a copy of Lucy McLauchlan's Tauranga Zine via her online shop here. Lucy McLauchlan on Instagram — @lucymclauchlan Hookedblog on Instagram — @Hookedblog
