A Julia Rothman, Brooklyn-based illustrator, pattern-designer, and co-founder of the company Also (which has one of the more enjoyable websites out there) has found time in her busy schedule to create a blog called Book by its Cover. The site features cool designer-worthy children's titles, examining both their interior and exterior charms. I'm rather taken with her feature on The Lollypop Factory.
Quiz Question of the Day: At what point in our nation's history did the spelling of this word change from "lollypop" to "lollipop"?
Thanks to Children's Illustration for the link.
Good news for all you crazed 20th century design fans out there. The publication of The Curiously Sinister Art of Jim Flora is up for purchase at long last. As the description of the book puts it:
"Much of the work in the book is light-hearted--it's not all Flora 'rassling his demons. But even in his impish renderings, there's something vaguely unsettling in the nuances. His comic grotesqueries echoed, and in many cases foreshadowed, the 1950s Harvey Kurtzman-era MAD magazine, as well as the underground comix of the late 1960s."
Groovy, man. Like you could resist that.
