The dog days of summer came early...
Dazed In A Heatwave
Apropos Of Nothing: I Love Colored Vinyl
New editions of old games purchased to replace damaged parts
Box Comparisons: Old / New
New eBay Score: Trouble (1965)
I purchased a second edition of Kohner’s Trouble game. The original came from my grandparents’ house where my mom, aunts and uncle shared many board games. I replaced the damaged box but the original game and pegs (cleaned with Windex and Q-tips) remain intact. The damaged box and one of the cardboard game bases have been saved to be upcycled into collage material. The extra game pegs will be going to another collector.
I got an upgrade on my Hullabaloo (1965) too.
All of the replaced cardboard items (box and inserts) will be
up cycled into source material for another collage for my home.
40 years of Purple Rain
Here's to staying cool in the heat.
I'm hard at work on coloring the illustrations for my next book.
I'll be at it for a while. There's a lot of work to be done.
As always... Cheers to all. Stay illuminated.
