A few months ago we had the pleasure of working with Kevin Cummins. He took some photographs of lads looking at cars for our fully digital Pica~Post virtual fanzine experience, and they turned out very nice indeed. But Kevin wasn’t the only man armed with a camera that fateful day — yep, our trusty shutter-handler Mike Sallabank was on hand to document the documenting, and now, for your viewing pleasure, here are his photos.
