Description
The fifth issue of Polacosmic is all about Greek antiquity. Described as the cradle of democracy, Greece is home to countless ruins dating back to ancient times. And while world-famous places like Mycenae or the Acropolis of Athens attract millions of visitors, many lesser-known locations of Ancient Greece are worth exploring.
So, in this issue of my polaroid zine, you will see the results of a long-term instant photography project. Through the years, I had a polaroid camera with me whenever I traveled to Ancient Greek locations. After traveling extensively around the country, I decided to present the best Greek antiquity photos I captured with various polaroid cameras. Apart from a tribute to an ancient civilization, the “Greek antiquity” edition of Polacosmic can be seen as a short travel guide to Greece.
Therefore, at the end of the zine, you’ll also find a short index with the locations and the cameras I used.
A few facts about the “Greek antiquity” zine
Here you’ll find specific details about the “Greek antiquity” issue of Polacosmic.
- Together with the cover, this polaroid zine has twenty pages.
- It’s printed on high-quality saddle-stitched US letter paper: the covers are 300 gsm, while the inside pages are 150 gsm.
- Polacosmic #5 contains only color polaroids.
- All copies are hand-numbered; usually, each edition consists of 10 or 20 copies. Check the current edition at the bottom of this description.
- None of the polaroids presented in Polacosmic was altered. That said, there’s no post-processing. The only touch is a +20 in sharpness for printing optimization purposes. Therefore, the colors, the grain, etc., remain intact. Polaroids should always look like polaroids.
- As I wrote earlier, international shipping costs are included in the price. I use standard shipping to keep down the costs.
- There’s a 7-day money-back guarantee; however, if you decide to return the issue(s), you’ll have to pay the shipping costs.
- Your Polacosmic issue(s) will dispatch within 48 hours. The zine(s) will be posted on Monday morning if you order copies during the weekend. The day it ships, you’ll receive an e-mail confirming the dispatch.
- According to the post office, you should have the zines within 5-7 business days.
You can pay either via credit card or PayPal. LettersToBarbara uses an encrypted SSL protocol; therefore, your transactions are safe, and no one can see your card details.
I have tested everything carefully multiple times. If you run into an issue (like accidentally buying the same copy twice), just contact me. We will solve everything together within a couple of hours.
