Finally! All 30 copies of the zine have been risographed (by the nice people at Hato Press), hand bound by yours truly using bakers twine and trimmed down to size. ‘How to wow a woman’ is a 32 page double sided zine featuring quotes found in 1940s and 1950s advertising campaigns on one side and a 5 piece full apron pattern from the period on the other side should you ever need one.

I have a lot of material so I will use the money I make from this edition (risograph is a very expensive process and so is my choice of paper so literally making no profit) to print more issues maybe with a theme (advice for wives, intimate hygiene, kitchenalia,…). So buy one if you can and help fund it!
