greenwich letterpress

found on print & pattern, the greenwich letterpress is a nyc based letterpress company (i think it might be in the west village on christopher street, which would make sense), but their cards, especially this one in particular, are very rennie mackintosh/vienna succession/arts & crafts movement/art deco.  they also have an etsy shop.

happy holidays!

old stuff in my sketchbook

cat power's album cover

i saw the vinyl cover in a record store window tonight and am considering buying it despite the lack of record player in my house.  the album just came out.

"the seven year itch" opening credits

circa 1955

this bag i won on ebay!

a vintage old stock aer lingus flight bag found on ebay.  only 15 dollars and sweet type running on the bottom!  this seller "timinbrooklyn" sells alot of vintage airline paraphanalia, which is pretty sweet to check out.

also i found this website of airline timetable images, including alot of vintage images (like the one below) from the 40s-60s when airlines had some pretty stellar design.

the reader's digest guide to sewing

this is practically a required resource for anyone who sews or constructs garments, and has one of the sweetest covers i have ever seen.  i got this copy on ebay a few years ago while during my brief stint in the fashion department of my college, and the publishing date says 1976, which makes total sense.  i should have realized my fate was to be in communication/graphic design instead of fashion because i spent more time eyeing the cover instead of looking up how to make a french seam and not fail my construction class.
