long live beige!

Old friends of the zine mobile may remember that one of the features in its original collection was the “Beige Is Not Boring” section.  It was suggested by a friend who helped me organize the inside of the van, and referred jokingly to my frequent protestations when she chose neutrals (she’s a designer) that “beige is so boring!”

I dismantled the section when we ended our Orderly Disorder Tour, in an effort to start organizing things by actual content instead of size/color, but I thought it would be fun to give a list here of the zines that were in that section — cuz they do indeed prove that Beige is NOT Boring! (All of these zines are still in the collection, sorted into more helpful categories!)
