Zine, Dear Jaguar No. 2: The Nightmare Issue

The author explores the evolution of several nightmares while juxtaposing collage work and several drawings. She also includes a series of photo booth style pictures as well as lists and recommended mix tape playlists.

Dear Jaguar No. 1

Catalog Number: 
Zine, Dear Jaguar No. 1
Date: 
August(?) 2000s (?)
Issue: 
1
Abstract: 
Dear Jaguar is a personal zine created and written by Vicky Limbo, a young woman attending college in Chicago. It contains a variety of photo illustrations, collage work and snippety anecdotes, mostly focusing on the author's life experiences. Making the zine seems to be a sort of personal exercise for her, one that marks an advent into a new sort of creativity and personal attitude.
Language: 
English
Notes: 
The author says "I am making this the day before my junior year in college" and makes great mention of summer. By the looks/sounds of it, this zine seems to have been produced in the late aughts.
