Reminder:
If you find yourself in the London area I strongly encourage you to see the LT Museum firsthand. Their current exhibit is titled Surburbia: from homes to gnomes, how public transport shaped the suburbs. It is open until March 31st, 2010. Additionally, there are holiday events scheduled during December.
>> Visit the museum website for more information. And psst… they are now on Twitter (@ltmuseum).

Unbelievably good! Thanks Amy.
Thanks for the lovely selection. The Abram Games poster is incredibly appealing. These colorful and cheerful sixties graphics have the power to make me feel happy inside!
