Crap Hound No. 6: Death, Telephones & Scissors cover

Crap Hound No. 6: Death, Telephones & Scissors

8.5x11, 104 pgs, offset, saddlestitched

Revised and expanded edition of Crap Hound #6: Death, Telephones and Scissors. Featuring eight brand new pages, and a gorgeous cover by Jordan Crane, it's sure to delight old and new readers alike.

Between a brief introduction and the end credits, Crap Hound is pure imagery. Each page is filled with high-contrast art, carefully taken from vintage catalogs, advertising, obscure books, and found ephemera. Through sheer volume of artfully arranged iconography, Issue No. 6 visually explores popular meaning, cultural ideals and historic symbolism of Death, Telephones and Scissors.

Debuting in 1994, Crap Hound became a favorite of both zine readers and publishers, and has received enthusiastic reviews from sources including The New York Times Magazine, RE/Search Books, the American Institute Graphic Arts, and the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum.
