me and books: Tini Series

I've find out that this one famous series of children books
by Marcel Marlier and Gijs Haag that we have the Indonesian
version of it, apparently its getting really difficult to find.
And I'm glad that I'm still being able to rescue some of these
books at my mom's house among my youngest sisters books
and magazines.

I've start to collect this in 1980's and I noticed that several
books especially the best ones are missing or had the pages
torned apart. What a sad, sad fact. Oh well, then there is one
more reason to go to the second book shops then:)

Oh and I'm so happy to find a flickr group on Marcel Marlier
Illustrations. Here http://www.flickr.com/groups/347645@N25/
Enjoy!

me and collection: vintage product labels

bought them at this guy at the old post office that i love.
there are more but i gave away as presents. look at those
colors and graphics. they are pretty big in size actually.
framed them in a group sounds like a perfect idea, right?
oh happy friday everyone!

me and collection: old postcards

I found these two tiny postcards at a thrift shop from Semarang
at an annual craft festival in Jakarta. I wish they are bigger.
Because I couldn't find any frame to put them until now.
And making a small frame is definitely much more difficult
than making a big one, although it may be cost less.

me and flowers: red roses



Being a sucker for flower
patterns, motifs, pictures
but not the real flowers itself.
These are my tiny collection
of old postcards with red roses
in it. How about you?
What kind of flowers that you
like only in pictures?
