Ian came back from Finland lately and look what he gave me!

A stretchy wool hoodie in my favorite color. Why, just being in the same room with it makes me want to do something badass, like tell Stalin to shove it while racing a rally car at insane speed on a mountain road and picking my teeth with a puukko!
Also, last time he was up here he noticed that I’d actually started decorating the new bedroom with Forgotten Weapons swag…

…and he said, “Don’t buy any more posters.” Because he gets a discount when he buys them, of course.
And today he sent the whole series of 1919 Secret Weapons posters!

…all advertising light arms that might have showed up at the Spring 1919 offensive, but lost their moment thanks to the unjust and discriminatory November armistice.
Most of these – the German guy in the gas mask might be a little creepy to wake up to every morning – will make their way gradually to the bedroom wall as money permits frame purchase.
Thanks, Ian!



















































I love your paperweights.
And hey, maybe save some funds and make your own frames? That woodworking stuff might be getting to point of second nature for you…
