Trace of the Hand , ALL-5-Senses, zine experience

When you subscribe to our zine, you become involved with our zine. When you receive our zine you will enter an experience which will engage all of your senses: Sight, Sound, Smell, Taste and Touch... ...in a very personal way. We do this as a love-in-action statement... as a symbolic gesture to promote: YOU & all to PLEASE get personally involved with your community. No one can create, build or even spell ANY part of "Unite Our Community" without U.

We have two ways for you to subscribe to our zine experience: One year & five years. Below we describe the one year zine experience. Everything that makes this different from the one year experience is in bold print.

Important Note: We ship all mail by U.S. post office, using signature confirmation and/or delivery confirmation, unless you live outside the U.S.. If you live outside of the United States we send mail by registered mail, which is the most secure postal mail available ( to learn more about registered mail go to the following website later: http://usps.com/send/waystosendmail/extraservices/registeredmailservice.htm ). Also, if you live outside the U.S.A., please check with your area's custom laws, before subscribing. If they don't allow it, we can't send it. For example, some areas don't permit mail with the use of the word "Christian". Because we don't hide our band name, we won't be able to send you anything. Also, some areas don't permit mailed food. So we can send everything except the food. [cut below & mail with payment]

We don't have an example of our "Horrifying Reality - Unignored" cover so we decided to show you a picture of a goal that we have for the future. You see, some time in the far future, we'd like to be able to offer our individually sold zines at a much lower cost. Currently, our "organic pizza please" issue is $5.50 because we have mostly black and white covers. But our future issues will be $10.00. *happy laughter* But currently, we can are able to sell our "organic pizza please" issue for $5.50 each. If you purchase a subscription you'll get the other zines for $5.50 each (plus shipping costs). The full color cover that you see here is one of our longe range future goals. With your help, we will only get better!

Credit Card Payments

As an added safety precaution against credit card fraud, we use SECURE PAYPAL credit card services, and we use the following two added safety precautions:

  • All packages will not be shipped until 45-60 days after payment is received. This precaution will hopefully deter fraudalent credit card users because during those 45-60 days...

  • ...our website address and email address will appear on the credit card invoice of the rightful owner of the credit card. This enables the rightful owner of the credit card to contact us in an expedited manner before we ship out any purchases.

    Thank you for understanding our need for added credit card safety.
