Behold, the envelope! Yes, Ryan used his Royal Navy "radio mill" for the envelope. As a typeface junkie, I very much appreciate this kind gesture.
The hand drawn desert landscape reminds me of warm, sunny places. I love the actinic glare of the Valley of the Sun.
This great greeting card was inserted in the envelope. What a great graphic!
The real prize was tucked inside. This postcard is pretty much awesome. Repeat after me... we must worship the Sholes. It is mightier than mountains and cranks out words more potent than edged weapons. Besides, according to Robert Messenger, Mark Twain got pretty ornery about the Sholes' offspring.
Ryan, thanks for the spiffy Typogram. Thanks also to Anna of A Machine for the End of the World for creating The International Correspondence Initiative.
Here is the back of the postcard, also by way of the Royal Navy mill. Sweet.
As for my oblique reference to the "Blog of the Beast", I was referring to the page count as it appeared when I opened my Blogger dashboard: 24,666. Given that it is election night, there is a certain irony in the fact that my pageviews are equal to the last digits of a zip code in Topeka, Kansas. This nearby hamlet is home to our state capitol and the infamous Fred Phelps of the Westboro Baptist Church.
So, from election avoidance central, I wish you all a pleasant evening.
I avoided much of the election. I really despise the way the liberal news media try their best to skew elections with projected wins. I'd rather just wait and see who wins when it counts, at the end. It does not matter who wins for the most part. One who had 4 years to do nothing, one who is new, and a Congress that will not work with either for the good of the nation.
ReplyDeleteThat..... is awesome!
ReplyDeleteElection? What election?
I see Ryan has whipped out the Radio Mill too! Awesome.
Well, the election is over and I can again declare my blog to be an apolitical zone. Our Democracy did its thing. I hope my temporary mention of politics did not detract from the awesome that is the Magic Margin Typogram.
ReplyDeleteGreat job, Ryan!
