I haven’t heard about zines for the longest time. I talked with a friend about them a few years back. While I may have known about them before this conversation, at least I know it’s been a few years.
Since that conversation, I would look into zines from time to time. Whether it would be to see how they are made or to see where people sell them.
Eventually, I found a website where they have zine vending machines. I was quite intrigued when I saw it. The vending machines sell small vines for $2.
One of the locations is at a bar that I have been to. I might have seen it at the bar the first time I was there. If I did, I didn’t know what the vending machine was for.
When I found out that the vending machine was for zines, it made me go back to the bar to check it out. Each product shelf had random zines. There was one that caught my eye, but it was the second one on the shelf. I figured that for $2 each, I was cool with buying them both.
I’m glad I got both of them. I got to see two different types of zines, and it is the first time I have seen some in person.
The website that I found when looking up about zines is Distroboto. More information can be found on their website: https://www.distroboto.com/
As for the bar I went to that has the vending machine, it’s Vices & Versa.
I’m glad I went back to see the vending machine.
If you’re curious about how it looks like at Vices & Versa, here’s a picture of it:
