Our trash is not often other people’s treasure, long forgotten and hopelessly misplaced. But flipping through the 90+ pages in each issue of FOUND is much like taking a trip down someone else’s hilarious and heartbreaking memory lane. This grassroots magazine is compiled from finds submitted by all types of people telling others’ stories. With pages that look like your own sixth grade scrapbook, you may even stumble upon a piece of your own lost memorabilia.
Pick up a copy and admire strangers’ secrets, love letters, memories, ticket stubs, poetry, doodles and more. And if you’re looking for a raunchier kind of found item, no need to look further than DIRTY Found, FOUND’s counterpart laden with pornographic doodles and slightly erotic poetry.
For your copy of FOUND, visit foundmagazine.com or one of Philadelphia’s independent bookstores: Molly’s Bookstore (1010 9th St.), Woodenshoe Books and Records (508 5th St.) or Robin’s Bookstore (1837 Chestnut St.).
