Why Publish?

Way back when, before blogs, people did something called "zines" - and Mike Gunderloy of Rensselaer NY cataloged them in his Factsheet Five. I illustrated a few covers (see below) as well as the inside of Mike's booklet "Why Publish?" - which was published in 1989 - ten years before the creation of blogger.

Not surprisingly Mike Gunderloy has his own blog now.

Here is one of my illustrations from "Why Publish?":


Now you can buy "Why Publish?" online here: Specific Object

and here: Biblio.

But you can get it for free here.

And you can view copies of Factsheet Five (maybe with my covers!) at several libraries.
