Vintage illustration goodies…


More amazing things unearthed at Full Table.

A strange and wonderful journey…


Insel Verlag books, above, found in an amazing website of epic and curious proportions: Full Table. “It’s bigger than you could ever think — just explore — no clues from me,” says the site author Dr. Chris Mullen. This is a website experience equivalent to visiting the Museum of Jurassic Technology. Confusing, confounding, crazy… awesome! I’m posting this on Sunday evening so if you happen to be looking for something to take up the last hours of your weekend, I recommend clicking through Full Table.
