Leeds Zine Fair 2015

This year we decided to book a table between the four of us at the flat, thus costing us £2.50 each. The event was much larger than I remembered from last year, the cramped setting of the Wharf Chambers had been exchanged for the much larger Left Bank venue.

We were one of the earliest to arrive, since the Left Bank is less than five minutes from our house, this gave us the opportunity to help set up the tables, and choose whichever table we so desired to set up upon.

I did take some pictures, however the lighting was something out of a Caravaggio, and the imagery was pretty non-descriptive.

There were some common trends amongst the tables, such as heaps of socialist pamphleteers and a good amount of vegan preachers.

I also noted that the majority of the custom were female 20-30 year olds, although to my surprise I did make a decent return.

I brought three zines and an assortment of old prints left over from previous projects and last year's thoughtbubble. I sold only two of the former, while the prints shifted easier.

I did enjoy the event, although I was not particularly interested in buying anything as there were few items that tickled my fancy.
