Zine Vending Machine
Lucky Drop
Lucky Drop is Wellington's vending machine for zines, comics, stickers and self-published work.
Lucky Drop is currently stationed at Arapaki Manners Library. The machine has been repainted by local artist Jewelia Howard, and is stocked with fresh zines, comics and stickers from Wellington zinemakers.
