An incredible collection of 219, rare, and just plain hardcore, punk, weird, and way underground zines collected by the beloved and acclaimed San Francisco filmmaker and curator Craig Baldwin, known internationally as the proprietor of Other Cinema, the world’s longest-running micro-cinema. From 1977 to 2023. The majority of the publications are from the 1980s and 90s.
Craig is having some major healthcare issues and the sale of this collection will benefit him greatly., so please spread the word!
This is an amazing snapshot of both the raw punk era and the various post-punk movements (queercore, riot grrrl, crusty-punk) that era spawned.
The collection includes a copy of CRAIG BALDWIN: AVANTE TO LIVE, the massive biography about Baldwin by the San Francisco Cinematheque.
