PE·CU·LIAR:

Hello. I’m a graphic designer, vintage dealer, and ephemera collector whose favorite pastime is rummaging through used bookstores and second-hand shops for paper artifacts from the psychedelic era. I’ve decided to archive and share some of my favorite finds here. I hope these mod graphics entertain and inspire you as much as they have me. Learn more.

MAN·I·CULE:

NOUN. 1. A symbol in the shape of a pointing hand, used in printing and graphics to draw attention to or indicate something. Origin: from Latin manicula, diminutive of manus or ‘little hand’.
