Eight-Stone Press at the BMA this Saturday!

BALTIMORE, Md. - Smile, Hon, You're in Baltimore! Editor William P. Tandy mans the Eight-Stone Press table from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. this Saturday, March 27, 2010, in the Baltimore Museum of Art’s Fox Court, as part of the DIY Marketplace component of the Baltimore Fair for Contemporary Prints & New Editions. Pick up the latest issue in the series, the raunchy Smile, Hon, You're in Flagrante!, back issues, Smile, Hon t-shirts and more! Other local print/publishing forces on hand will include Leeking Inc. (zine-review zine Xerography Debt, horror zine Rigor Mortis); Atomic Books; Ben Claassen III; Closed Captioned Comics; Narrow House; Red Emma's; Shattered Wig Press; Squidfire; The Holster; Jordan Jeffries and Gary Kachadourian.

From the harbor to the hills, the award-winning Smile, Hon, You're in Baltimore! collects the tales of those on whom Mobtown has left her indelible mark. Polished, professional essays; barroom sermons delivered from the sanctity of a favorite stool; the poet's fleeting sentiment, captured in both word and snapshot – Smile, Hon offers a slice of Baltimore as told by Baltimore, presented with the time-honored DIY accessibility of a limited-run, handcrafted zine. A two-time Utne Independent Press Award nominee, Smile, Hon has also been dubbed "Best Zine" by Baltimore Magazine (2008) and Baltimore City Paper (2004).
