Picked up this incredible book by @rikmoranphoto through @CentreCentre_. A perfect accompaniment to @danny_robins's Todmorden UFO episode of #Uncanny. The extra information has really made the whole thing even more creepy... It contains photos & drawings around the event 🫢🤐😬

AMETORA MINI-STORIES #2 Why Japanese Fashion Magazines Look Like Catalogs One of the most distinctive features of Japanese magazines is their similarity to catalogs: lots and lots of products laid out along with prices and retailers. The origin is, oddly, the US counterculture.
