The lost-in-translation magic of items in the gift shops of Kilkee. On the packaging of this one: ‘To be highly praised and appreciated by consuming public. Completely new to come in to the market.’ Well that’s me sold. #weird #translation #lostintranslation #toy #packaging #toypackaging #kilkee #clare #countyclare #giftshop #gifts #overseas #design #typography #badtypography (at Kilkee)

Spent the last week in County Clare. It rained. It blew a gale. And so it all looked even more like album and book covers than normal. Luckily I was up for collecting source material so: swings, meet roundabouts. #ireland #holiday #holiday2019 #2019 #summer #countyclare #westcoast #atlantic #atlanticcoast #wildatlanticway #midnight #middleofnowhere #albumcover #bookcover #bookcoverdesign #books #bookcoverphotography #moon #moonlight #telegraphpole #artist #anartistabroad

A 1984 edition of a 1969 book - the photo on the cover looks convincingly late ‘70s/early ‘80s at least. Oh and it looks like young Nigel got those leather gloves for his birthday he’d been pestering his Nan about. #bookstagram #bookcover #1970s #1980s #games #childrensgames #wasteground #urban #brickwall #publishing #design #typography #type #1969 #coverstory #britain

A couple of fun Ben Nicholson prints on display at @tate Britain.
