Help them fund the RAD magazine book...
« on: July 12, 2018, 10:44:00 AM »
As you have probably seen on countless Instagram posts, the former staff of the UK's RAD Magazine (1987-1995) has dug up their original archives and is attempting to immortalize the content (some printed and some never published) in a book. If anybody wants to help make it happen, here's the link:

Also, here's a link to a long interview about the whole thing:

If they need a kickstarter to get that mag going they probably shouldn’t be doing a mag.

^they are trying to make a book that chronicles the history of the mag and not trying to resurrect the mag.
