Like the name might imply Zine Machine is a vending machine selling zines, books and minicomics with prices from $1 to $10. It’s located in the University of Iowa’s Library, but you might spot them at a zine workshop or conference near you. The machine has an open submission policy that could get your zines distributed right in the heart of the USA.
The project began as Book Drop, a book vending machine showing the value of hand binding by selling individual kits of book parts. It picked up it’s more contemporary mission earlier this year.
The vending theme similar to the Art-o-Mat project, but focussed more specifically on DIY literature.
That’s pretty rad. I want one.

Oooh, very innovative concept! And it’s got to be cheaper than the ipod vending machine at Macy’s.
