E.T. Means Exercising Together
March 4, 2009 – 12:31 pm
This Exercising Together album cover from 1982 has to be the most fabulous thing I have seen in weeks. I love how they are shamelessly trying to cash in on the E.T. movie’s hype. I found this while browsing through Flickr user IAAFOTS’s collection of vintage and retro imagery. Thanks to Mid-Century Modernist for pointing [...]
Gallery of handmade flea circuses
January 19, 2009 – 12:34 pm
I love this little gallery of vintage looking hand made flea circuses. It makes me want one just to have as decoration in my house. The photos have that nice vintage coloring to them as well, I just wish they were bigger. Via Clusterflock
Cynical Christmas Cards
December 23, 2008 – 1:51 pm
Erstlaub, a musician/designer friend of mine, designed this humorous set of cynical Christmas cards. Although I’m not so cynical about the holidays, they still made me laugh, and I love the minimal black Helvetica bold on white design.
Or It Gets The Arial Again

Helvetica references are getting old, but this one at artboredom.com still managed to make me smile.
Watercolor infused graphics by Karen Kurycki
September 24, 2008 – 11:22 am
These watercolor based graphics by Karen Kurycki made me smile instantly. I love the way she uses loosely dropped watercolor to give it some organic texture, but the careful layouts of the paint keep the designs graphic in nature. Of course the wit helps with the smile factor. There’s a definite DADA influence on some [...]
“Hello World” letterpess test run
September 3, 2008 – 11:34 pm
I just thought this was a very funny and appropriate way to test out your new letterpress machine. Those true nerds out there (which I’m guessing is a good proportion of my visitors) will understand, others can learn the significance here. I love the meshing of old world and new world.
Typography inspired Pinewood Derby car
July 20, 2008 – 11:42 pm
The Columbus Society of Communicating Arts recently held a fun looking Pinewood Derby contest. I especially love the “Typemobile” pictured above. As a former 3 time champion in my Cub Scout years, it combines the fun I had making Pinewood Derby cars as a youth, with my current design obsession as an adult. I also [...]
If an ad agency today had to design the stop sign

This is pretty funny, but mostly sad because of how true it is. Via Hello Bauldoff
Back to the Futura – Cinematypography
June 2, 2008 – 6:20 pm
The fantastic design blog September Industry has created, with the help of other contributers, a list of movie titles that have font names worked into them. Maybe it’s because I’m a super nerd, but it’s the funniest thing I have seen on the internet in a long time. Some of my favorites are Back to [...]
