$5.00
Trevor Dickinson
...I've house-hunted in both England and Australia. When I lived in London I could pretty much tell the size, features and age of a house and its garden, just by looking at the street name...Here, in Newcastle [NSW] it was different: every time I went to look at a house I had no idea what to expect. Everywhere we looked houses were on different block sizes and might have been built decades apart from the neighbours'. Resulting in very little uniformity in many streets...The same applies to Newcastle letterboxes...
15 cm x 10 cm, 32 pages of street letter boxes numbered 26-50, illustrated.

a zine accompaniment to a mixtape devoted to typewriters, see www.mixcloud.com/ttfb
