Each issue of The Fidalgo Island's Beautiful fanzine is made entirely by hand and free of paid advertisements by former Fidalgo Island resident turned Olympia local, Jimi Sharp.  Originally each issue was created with the idea in mind that individual copies would be photocopied on a copy machine in black and white and read in the tangible zine format.  Welcome to the 21st Century edition of The FIB zine in FULL COLOR!!!
