FOUND Magazine #1

FOUND Magazine seriesNext:Found: The Best Lost, Tossed, and Forgotten Items from Around the World(2004) →

The very first one! It's like looking at FOUND's baby photos. Check out a list of teacher-stalking license plates (maybe yours is in there). Look to found resumes for inspiration in your own job hunt. Learn all about Hawaii from one woman's vacation log. Read the inaugural FOUND interview with Lynda Barry. And of course, the find that started it all: Page Me Later. All that, plus loads of found photos, notes, drawings, and more!
