I’ve been to Derry for #LeToMaGiC issue eight, too. I admired the murals, my favourite being the one for Nell McCafferty, was happy to receive a bottle cap from a brewing cooperative called Lacada in Portrush and enjoyed the hospitality at @derrycityfc.net.

I visited Dublin for #LeToMaGiC issue eight, but it seems like the famous #ForgottenZineArchive is no longer operating. Though the @marshslibrary.bsky.social has an even longer history. Footballwise it was a pleasure to watch the @shamrockrovers.ie women to win at home.

Hab hier rumgestickert. Gruß an @hdrlmpkms.bsky.social @letomagic.bsky.social @hafetschutter.bsky.social und @altona93fanzines.bsky.social

I believe this is the only known use of Juan Guzman's famed Marina Ginestà photo during the Spanish Civil War itself, an image which has come this century to represent more than any other the revolutionary hopes of 1936. CP magazine Pasionaria, 23 October 1937. Via Gabriela Cladera, FB.

@letomagic.bsky.social Vielen Dank für die neueste Ausgabe und liebe Grüsse vom Bodensee 💥

@letomagic.bsky.social @altona93fanzines.bsky.social well, it would be a shame to go to one of the pubs in the zine and not put a sticker up there wouldn't it?

I just received the first picture of a diy sticker from #LeToMaGiC issue 7. I‘m pretty much looking forward to your versions of this hand drawn sticker!

Handcut & handsewn - the seventh issue of my mini art #zine #LeToMaGiC is available now! This issue covers Great Yarmouth, Hull, Klaipėda, Kraków & Zürich. Do you know which record inspired the cover artwork of this issue? #DIYZines

The ‚handcut‘ bit for #LeToMaGiC issue 7 is finally done - now the ‚handcolour‘ and ‚handsew‘ bits are next. #DIYzines

It's Thursday so that can mean only one thing, a new blog is up now. This week we look at the links between football fanzines and Subbuteo. Yes, you read that right.. footballfanzineculture.blog/2025/07/03/f...

I just wrote about this shirt for the next @letomagic.bsky.social issue, it might play a role in the next @gidouille.bsky.social project and now I really enjoyed this free short film!

I‘m just curious, if I might be the first zine in the #DIYzines feed. I‘m looking forward to all the others who will join!

Let's remember Marina Ginestà. Died #OnThisDay 6 Jan 2014 in Paris. Born in Toulouse to politised working class migrant Catalan parents. Family returned to Barcelona 1928, prewar communist youth. 1939 escaped Franco Spain, exile in LatAm, later France, 1970s won Cat literary awards for novels.

Happy New Year to all who celebrate!

I’ve been to Zürich for #LeToMaGiC issue seven, too. The brilliant K-Set #ZineLibrary exists more than twenty years now - and the Grasshoppers Club Zürich even longer. I also visited the Cabaret Voltaire, of course.

Hi @sluginkpress.bsky.social, I‘m going to visit Brighton from December 26th to January 1st. Do you have any hints for zine collections, exhibitions, concerts, libraries or other zine places?

And I’ve been to Kraków for #LeToMaGiC issue seven this year. As Garbarnia Kraków left the league last minute and the Kabel Kraków cup match was relocated to a pitch outside town, I visited Wisła in an European cup match. But I enjoyed exploring the Polish #ZineLibrary even more: www.zinelibrary.pl

I’ve been to Lithuania for #LeToMaGiC issue seven. These picturesque floodlights are located in Klaipeda and the home team was Neptunas. The Lithuanian #ZineLibrary is an online archive only: jauka.knf.vu.lt/collection

Am I the first person who started ‚Land Of The Giants‘ in Hamburg and finished it in Lithuania? I really enjoyed reading about so many people being involved in the different fields of the hobby!

The #LeToMaGiC #zine is inspired by Pixi books. That’s why the wonderful ‚70 years of #Pixi‘ exhibition at the Altonaer Museum was a must. Thanks to @chrizmagic.bsky.social for pointing me out to this!

I’ve been to Norfolk for #LeToMaGiC issue seven, too. The #ZineLibrary is located in the Millenium Library in Norwich. The wonderful stand sits just a couple of meters from the beach in Great Yarmouth and there are nice small breweries in both towns (as well as in between).

I visited Hull for #LeToMaGiC issue seven and spent some marvellous time at the Hull #ZineLibrary, North Ferriby FC and in a few great pubs as well as the #Atom brewery taproom.

😘

Mit ganz lieben Grüßen. @altona93fanzines.bsky.social #Letomagic

I‘m so glad @CEEuropa won the derby on Sunday (again) and I don’t approve some things they (?) did outside the stadium, but the choreo by the Desperdicis is a real piece of art! #AntifeixistaSempre

As ever @chrizmagic.bsky.social found wonderful words to describe his thoughts, feelings and the world around him. Thank you very much for the zine and the thoughtful review!

Inspiring.

Today the latest issue of LeToMaGiC is available at the @altona93.bsky.social match - see you in the sun, later!

Some of you might receive a tiny letter during the next days.

Oh shi*t - I just realised that three DIY sticker contributions to LeToMaGiC #6 aren‘t printed in the zine! I‘m so sorry, @chrizmagic.bsky.social, Seitoung & Stemmen!

Handcut & handsewn - the sixth issue of my mini art #zine #LeToMaGiC is available now! The issues one to five are completely sold out, but you can read the first three issues online: issuu.com/letomagic
