but, for the record not all of that stuff was officially part of 5' 9" #6! for instance: the gustave morin piece, the fluxus buck, the ray johnson stamps, and the little green stamp were extras....

5' 9" #3 (issued Aug. 28/04)

this was the first issue i did after taking over the project from derek beaulieu... all of these works were collected by derek who passed them on to me in the summer of 2004 ... this issue came out unbound (derek would have likely done some hand-sewn magic on it to bind it all together!) i sent one of the extra copies to geof huth who wrote about it on his blog: http://dbqp.blogspot.com/2004/12/three-quarters-of-inch-shorter-than-i.html

(i still have a few extra copies if anyone is interested in picking one up)

i have done three more issues since this one and now sit on the cusp between issues #6 & #7
