Molly sent me the above picture a few days ago with the note “A couple of antique book cover scans, no reason, somewhat blurry, but charming nonetheless.” It reminded me of this Flickr page dedicated to classic Penguin & Pelican book covers. Amazing things. Like the best book pile of the best online rummage sale you could ever imagine. And for those of you looking for something a little more tangible: “Penguin By Design” is also a must have book for any lonely coffee table.
Spike Jonze’s feature film rendition of Maurice Sendaks classic story Where The Wild Things Are has hit movie theaters worldwide.
The film represents years of work from hundreds of different artists, writers, photographers, musicians, actors, and creators of all degrees.
This place has been established to help shed some light on many of the small influences that converged to make this massive project a reality.
