The EFZRR Hits the Road

On Christmas Eve of 2020 we went for a morning walk through East Falls. As we made our way up one of these steep streets, we happened upon a beautiful old metal library cart sitting on the curb, waiting for the trash collector. Score! 

The cart reminded us of the industrial-teal ones from school—you'd leave your books on its shelves, and later the librarian would wheel them around and put them away. We didn't know what we'd do with it, just that we had to have it. We rolled that sucker all the way home and it made an ungodly noise the whole way, its hollow metal body booming through the quiet neighborhood with every little bump.

And now we have a plan for our lovely old cart. We're restoring it to its former glory with a paint job and a new sign, and then we'll take the EFZRR zine collection on the road! 

On Sunday, September 26 from 11am — 3pm, we'll spend the afternoon at McMichael Park on Midvale Ave. in East Falls. Our cart will be filled with a selection of zines, books about zines, and comics for an interested public to browse. As always, all are welcome—just drop by any time between 11am and 3pm. We plan to pack a picnic lunch and will bring some snacks to share. We hope to see you there!
