Pound the Pavement #15: Handala

This is a slightly-updated reprint of a small zine I created for the Librarians and Archivists With Palestine Box Set that was compiled for Booklyn back in 2014. Previously it was unavailable outside of this exclusive box set.
It was a perfect little project to use to learn how to run our new Risograph here in Brooklyn! The cover is 2-color, and the insides are printed in two different spot colors on multiple kinds of paper. The zine itself is a compilation of 29 photos of cartoonist Naji al-Ali's Handala character painted, pasted, stenciled, and screenprinted around the Palestinian Occupied Territories.
This is Pound the Pavement #15, part of a series of zines I've been producing for over a decade now. See others here.

Pound the Pavement is an ongoing zine and publishing project organized by Justseeds member Josh MacPhee. Originally launched in 2000 to release a series of zines collecting photographs of street stencils (which would eventually evolve into the 2004 book Stencil Pirates), MacPhee has continued using the name to publish over twenty zines and publications. Although there is no single subject matter that connects all of the publications, overall they are a place for MacPhee to work out his twin obsessions of collecting and organizing.
