This ‘Golden Stapler’ nominated zine has reached its landmark 10th issue and this Lost Shark, can be found lurking inside the pages. For those of you who are not familiar with The Lavender Room, each issue features:
Ye Olde Picture Books – what amazing vintage books have I found in secondhand shops?
Raise High the Salinger – quotes from the dearly departed J.D.Salinger
Thankyou for Being a Friend – my Golden Girls pick of talented friends!
For Want of a Word – want a word? I’ve got one!
Tools in Vogue – what tools have featured in my life of late?
The ebay That Got Away – it’s tough being outbid!
A ‘Pome’ from Pas – for some literary sensation
but to make issue #10 that little bit special The Lavender Room treats you to sneezing, an albatross, fashion and Hashimoto in Springtime!
And let’s not forget that each zine comes with a solitary match to set it all on fire after reading! Pick up a copy here.


beautiful concept. I am heading to see if there are any left.
(and Vol. 11.7 is here and wonderful – thank you Graham)
G. Didn’t manage to get one. do i must register to the site for doing so?
am not sure D, can you email her from the site?
I also think not. need to be registered for that. I am not sure I like that. What is that website all about.
i just had a look and couldn’t really work out how to purchase the zine… i know the person very well who runs the site, but they are away for the next few weeks so can’t even contact them for help. sorry D! very frustrating…
yes.. but no worries. i hope there will be issue 11
so glad 11.7 is there D! happy reading, G
