…I did yesterday. Wonderful pop-up book in a perfect condition for almost nothing. Pure hapiness.
I guess most of you know about famous Swedish author Astrid Lindgren. One of her stories is about Emil, who spends a lot of time in a woodwork shed where he hides from his angry father because of all the pranks he does (Emil, not the father). Anyway, while sitting there he carvs out small wood sculptures and he plans to have a party when he has done a hundred. I have now done 70 so another 30 and then I will also have a party and an exhibition:-)
You know the old book I found yesterday? I did recognize the style and found another book by the same graphic designer in my bookshelf.
We do live in a Nordic country so I can´t really understand why we´re not better prepared for winter than we are. The Swedish Rail isn´t that popular right now since every other train is cancelled.
Old ad for Swedish Rail.
Some more wood block figures.
