J. Otto is working on some supercool bike stuff for our next opening, July 4th. Mark your calendars and keep your eyes out for more details!
The Royal Academy of Arts doesn't really need any introduction but I'll provide you with one anyway. Founded by King George III all the way back in December 1768, its centuries long mission has been to promote British art and design via 'education and exhibition' (thanks, wikipedia!). Still going today, independent and privately funded, it seems to be doing this quite well. In terms of the 'education' aspect - the Royal Academy Schools form the oldest art school in Britain, and also . And for the exhibition - they possess a massive collection of art, much of it extremely rare. And they also champion âup-and-comersâ - which they bloody well should do. Go into the courtyard at Burlington House at the moment ad the first thing you shall see will be the current installation, which looks likeâ¦I dunno⦠WW2 era sea mines crossed with a touch of Scandinavian minimalism and some of the decor from a the Casino Night Zone in Sonic The Hedgehog 2
Anyhow, within this hallowed institution's hallowed courtyard you shall find The Keeper's House. It is called this because it was traditionally the place where the academy's Keeper lived (the current ones doesnât live there though, which seems sad considering itâs full of supercool shit). The Keeper did a lot of stuff (though looking after bees and errant footballs were not included) - I think mainly it comes down to administrative work and âkeepingâ the art collection. Keeping it looking pretty andâ¦educational maybe.
And, within The Keeperâs House is The Shenkman Bar (named after a notable RA architect, I think?). We were invited down to said bar because of a man/cocktail genius/excellent human being named Fabio Fritolli - who I met some months back at the Cichetti bar, and who I now count as a friend. Fabio is a bar consultant - and since this, his current project, was coming to an end, he wanted us to come down and help him see it off in style! All I can say is that everything is SERIOUSLY on fucking point and that Iâd love to know where he gets his ideas from. We're all very much looking forward to Fabio's next project.
Sold as doll:
She had a basic body and a deep suntan. Long tick blond hair with a fringe and two spiral hair thingies in blue and yellow.
The yellow t-shirt one had a pink bikini under it.
She came with dark sun-glasses.
This is an embossed typography print that my super talented buddy Nate created and sent to me. I thought it was so nice that I had to find a suitable vintage frame to compliment it's awesomeness. I found the frame at the Fremont Sunday market. Supposedly it's from the 30s or 40s. Seattle, 2011.
Brixton has degenerated into a disregarded area inhabited by London's new robot workforce - robots built and designed to carry out all of the tasks which humans are no longer inclined to do. The mechanical population of Brixton has rocketed, resulting in unplanned, cheap and quick additions to the skyline.
The film follows the trials and tribulations of young robots surviving at the sharp end of inner city life, living the predictable existence of a populous hemmed in by poverty, disillusionment and mass unemployment. When the Police invade the one space which the robots can call their own, the fierce and strained relationship between the two sides explodes into an outbreak of violence echoing that of 1981.

1952 Kay 125 "Stratotone" Guitar w Jimmy Reed Thin Twin Pickup
The year was 1952. The reigning guitar gods of Kalamazoo, Michigan had just released their first venture into the world of solid body, single cutaway guitars.
Not to be outdone -- or perhaps more accurately, “to be totally outdone”-- the good people at Kay Musical Instruments in Chicago had some other ideas… Like, “Why not take one of those supercool, honkin’ blade pickups off one of our 'Thin Twin' Jimmy Reed guitars, and slap it on a plank of wood?” and, “Hey, why not attach the cord to the guitar, so you never have to go looking for one?”
The rest, as they say, is history, the Kay 125 (sometimes referred to as a “Stratotone” though I don’t believe that’s an official name).
This model was only available for about two years and came complete with tiger-striped “tortoise shell” mounting plates for the pickup and controls-- All for the amazingly low price of $49.50.
This is the supercool Simba's Pride Fisher Price Playset with balls, sounds effects and many activity features! *_*
