As we swim downstream to work in the pouring rain, who wouldn't want to go abroad?  Keith and Sally certainly do.  We are planning to sell lots of similar beautiful vintage graphic books at 161 Kirkdale Road from 1st-24th December...

Kirkdale Shop

This is our space - in two weeks this will be Pen and Gravy vs Modernish Central.  Thanks in advance  to the See3 gang, those paid and volunteers.  They will be working round the clock and then round again to make the shop look amazing...

Hello Pen and Gravy

In December Modernish will be collaborating with Pen and Gravy, -south-east London's fave graphic demon-designer-doodler-dude - at the See3 project space in Kirkdale/Sydenham.  See the penandgravy site to see what I mean.  It's not just pens and gravy.  Y'know kids, as a veggie I will be demanding he does meat free pencils and a vegetable stock alternative!!!

I'm still in love with you...

...sang Thin Lizzy.  And I suppose I am still in love with you.  The blog continues, hopefully less sporadically!

Sasek

I have been flicking through some old copies of the Miroslav Sasek children's books.  The London one is definitely my favourite, with the New York one next.  But what about this: his tribute to the Matchbox factory!? Not just for boys by the way...
