Found Magazine #4 96 pages, full size, offset (13 oz) $4.95

Davy Rothbart publishes letters, notes, leaflets and other effluvia gathered from the streets of cities and towns across America. While some might see it as trash, every page provides both humorous and poignant glimpses into the life of strangers in an accidental, random, yet beautiful way. Rothbart and his little brother collected most of the found materials for the first issue of the magazine. The three follow up issues are filled with submissions sent in by strangers from all over the country. Rothbart's recent tours across the country have inspired other enthusiastic scavengers, who now scan the sidewalks in search of found treasures to send in to the magazine.

 
Rip up your garbage so it doesn't fall into this bottom-feeder's hands! Another patronizing parasite who, like the fans of thrift store art, assumes no intelligence or sense of humor among the folks who wrought the stuff- it's validated only by our knowing snickers. I felt a bit queasy when he admitted that he's run contributions from cops- how'd they get their hands on the 'found' material? rhizome
