Crap Hound the best Zine around town
Crap Hound by Sean Tejaratchi
A Picture Book for Discussion and Activity

Imagine pages jammed with clips of vintage catalogs, obscure books and random pictorial finds.

The Review from Reading Frenzy's Website:

"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. 5 visually explores popular meaning, cultural ideals and historic symbolism of Hands, Hearts & Eyes.


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.

The long out-of-print first editions sell for more than ten times their original price. After several years' hiatus, editor Sean Tejaratchi will complete the all-new Crap Hound No.7, featuring Church and State, in Spring 2005." - BASTION , posted 05/17/05
