Join the Big Issue Coldwar Steve treasure hunt

Five vendors around Birmingham will be carrying exclusive signed copies, their locations marked on the Big Issue treasure map

Not managed to get your hands on our Coldwar Steve cover special yet? Or perhaps you have, but fancy grabbing an exclusive signed edition, marked by the hand of the artist himself?

On Friday we’ll be running a Coldwar Steve extravaganza in the great city of Birmingham with a Big Issue vendor treasure hunt.

Five Big Issue vendors across Birmingham city centre will be carrying two signed editions of the magazine each, featuring our already-iconic Brexit caravan of chaos cover and interview with the man behind the Coldwar Steve phenomenon, Chris Spencer, inside.

Their locations are marked on the map. Look out for our official vendors across those five locations, who will all be wearing their official Big Issue red tabards.

Good luck, and happy hunting. They’ll be hiding just like Cilla.

The Big Issue, the magazine sold by vendors to lift themselves out of poverty, is available to buy from  25th March across the UK for £2.50.
