As many of you, our loyal readers, know, we had a lil’ fundraiser thing with Kickstarter.

Well, we just stumbled across this amazing project; it’s particularly meaningful for those who came of age in the late 80s/early 90s.  (I also realize, many people reading this weren’t even born yet, which is scary.)

Anyway, in 1989, Michael Galinsky toured the malls of the US with a cheap camera in-hand. Years later, he’s launched a Kickstarter project to compile those images into a photo book celebrating these dying bastions of American culture.

1989 was a particularly great time.  “Appetitie for Destruction” was out for two years- just look at the mini-Axls in the photo!  It was also the same year Nirvana’s “Bleach” was released.  The battlelines were drawn!
