    Last year I made a zine ☠️ DEAD LETTERS ☠️ about about the beautiful and unexpected letterforms on gravestones in India, featuring photographs from the South Park Street Cemetery (Kolkata), Nicholson Cemetery (New Delhi) and Nishatganj Cemetery (Lucknow) https://indiastreetlettering.com/zines/ Those of you who supported the Kickstarter campaign for India Street Lettering would have received a copy as a reward, but the zine is now available for purchase.

    Are folks still using Flickr? Is it a nice place to be in — no algorithms, no AI slop? Would you recommend it? Thinking of reviving my long dead account 🤔 (Boost for reach, please)
