"Tristan Alexander"
































I first saw the works of Tristan Alexander perhaps twenty years ago. It appeared in a self published 'zine. Back in the day that's what some artists folks did with their stuff. The internet as we know it wasn't quite together yet.

Anyway as many of you know I was a "'Zine Bandit" back then too. Putting out all of them nude Angel small books, assorted broadsides, and Queer time bombs. You know, putting one's stuff on book store shelves.

This to get the goodies into the hands of the needy proles without having to deal with the butt holes at the front desk.

"What's this?!" "This isn't on our list"

"Keep it."

"We'd 'never' sell filth like this here!"

"Naked Angel Boys indeed!"

"This is a 'decent' gay book store!!"

This mostly worked.

Anyway this is kinda how I found Tristan's early 'zines. In certain now deservedly vanished book stores. Her stuff, yeah "Her" stuff is seriously Heartful. So follow the link on the right, and check out here blog, and other website.

  3. Hello Tristan!

    Sorry about the gender confusion. Gender role, and identification has always been difficult for me.Also I've been a fan forever!

    Swell Stuff!

    Back in the day I meant to get in touch with you as I was publishing Angels boy books, and such.

    Btw if you want to see some of them go to my link to "Inkplum" one of my old blogs. A bunch of my Angels are floating around there.

    Anyhow thanks for your body of work, bless you, and keep at it!
