A small publication based on two sets of souvenir postcards: Greetings from Oak Ridge and Memorial Sceneries from A-Bombed Hiroshima. Greetings from Oak Ridge is a collection of delicately coloured images depicting the development of Oak Ridge (Tennessee, USA), which was chosen as a production site for the Manhattan Project: the enormous operation that created the atomic bomb during World War 2. In stark contrast to the Oak Ridge souvenirs, Memorial Sceneries from A-Bombed Hiroshima features a set of black and white photographs taken some time after the nuclear bombing of Japan in July 1945. A Zine of Two Cities superimposes elements of the Greetings From imagery over Memorial Sceneries, creating a third (collaged) ‘souvenir’. Each collage is named for the underlying black and white image, although the visible titles are from the Oak Ridge cards.
