Basic Paper Airplane
Basic Paper Airplane is a zine by Joshua James out of Olympia, Wa., U.S.A.
While perhaps categorically a perzine, it's a mixed bag of essays, interviews, lists and vignettes. The first issue (now out of print) came with a paper airplane and CD. Issues are infrequent, sometimes spaced years apart. Started in July, 2005, as of January, 2010, three issues have come out.
In a review of issue #2, Kelly Froh of Zine Thug said, "Joshua writes short essays about genealogy, living with and without a car, the significance of the American dollar, an interview with a film-maker friend, and a report on the ghosts of Snohomish County. I haven't read this much sincerity and thought in a zine in a long time. He has a really great voice, and is able to express himself in natural, original way. It was such a pleasant read."
