ENDPAPERS SCARF // 30
In the debut issue of First Edition, the inside-front and inside-back covers showcase a continuous work of art by Vivienne Lux of Tempe, AZ. Twelve inches square in its original format (colored pencil on black paper, 2018), “Navahante” has been reimagined as a scarf for the hair, neck, wrist, purse strap or belt loop.

NAMEPLATE TEE // 25
In 2023, we refined the magazine's tagline to emphasize geographic reach: the magazine of makers in the desert southwest. Acme Prints of Phoenix, AZ discharged the nameplate on brown tees; the finish is totally smooth, with no awkward feels. This design was introduced at Portalfest 2023 in Santa Fe, AZ.
