The pigs' expressions are pretty awesome. This is from a card game, 7 Familles, from around 1940-1955. The families were based on occupation and you had to try and collect all the family member cards.
Agence Eureka has a ton of vintage French ephemera, illustrations, school books, etc. Birds, anatomy, geography. colonialism, you name it, she's got it!

Andrea Dezso's "Lessons From My Mother"

Transylvanian-born artisti Andrea Dezsö works in a broad range of media including embroidery. My personal favorite is the "Lessons From My Mother" series of 48 embroidered squares with the illustrated folk wisdom and/or crazy ideas of her mother.
Yep. These make you think about the crazy/wrong/silly things your mom says, don't they?
Seal the Rock!

I watched Hawaii Five-O religiously as a kid. Jack Lord ruled. My family incorporated Hawaii Five-O speak into our lexicon: Book 'em Danno! Seal the Rock! How could you not love a villian named Wo Fat? And, Jack Lord had really mesmerizing hair. If I had come across this piece somewhere, I would own it. And it would be hanging proudly in my home.
Awesome Christmas jumpers
December 26, 2009 - 12:54pm | CristyThis Welsh grandmother is a fearless knitter, a prolific crafter and an awesome Christmas gift giver! She knitted for 12 months to outfit the entire family in brightly colored hand knit jumpers. Life lesson: When your gran asks you what colors you want in your sweater-- don't be flip, choose colors that match and be very careful in your reply.
