???? “Won’t Go To Heaven”: A Zine That Captures the Graffiti of the Sex Pistols ????

???? The Art of Documentary Photography

British, Austrian & Irish street & documentary photographer Michael Goldrei, the creative mind behind Eggs Press, has a knack for capturing the humour, mundanity, and colour of everyday life. His work, which has been featured by The Guardian, BBC, Time Out, and Vogue Italia’s PhotoVogue, among others, is a testament to the power of documentary photography. His latest project, “Won’t Go To Heaven,” is a zine that digs into the graffiti of the Sex Pistols still visible on the walls of a property in West London.

???? The Making of “Won’t Go To Heaven”

“Won’t Go To Heaven” is the first in a collection of zines featuring reportage photography aimed at bringing interesting subject matters to a wider and more current audience. The zine follows a house style that is typographic, slick, and is set to become very collectible. The print spec makes for a readable, lightweight photography journal, perfect for those interested in the intersection of music, art, and history.

The zine was printed as an A5 booklet, with 40 pages self-cover onto 170gsm uncoated. The four-colour print throughout gives the images a vibrant and lifelike quality. The zines were trimmed, collated, and wire stitched, resulting in a high-quality, professional finish. The run was limited to just 40 copies, making each one a collectible item.

Ex Why Zed makes self publishing a truly pleasurable experience!
Brilliant communication from start to finish. Mike had endless patience for the many questions we asked. The guides provided were easy to follow and super helpful (the video guides are a must watch too). Our order of hardback illustrated children's books was delivered expertly packaged and on time. As for the finished product itself - stunning - a real joy to finally hold, beautifully made and perfectly printed! We couldn't have asked for more. Well, we did - we instantly placed an order for paperback children's colouring books too, which we are equally as happy with. Look forward to working with Ex Why Zed again in the future.
