Fra Colors Magazine #45 – ‘Future’. Fra den gangen de fortsatt var jevnt over veldig bra på redaksjonelt stoff. Nå er de veldig ustabile – fra det kjedelige til det fantastiske. Anyways… Jeg husker spesielt godt dette nummeret fra juli, 2001:
“For Colors 45 we visited Star City, home of the late Yuri Gagarin, patron saint of the cosmos, and a 6,500-strong community of cosmonauts, space engineers, government officials and their families. This high-security military base, one hour from Moscow (by Lada) and 10 minutes by rocket from outer space, represents the heart of the Russian space program.”

“During his twenty-one years managing Joy Division and New Order, Rob Gretton – a dedicated hoarder – built up a private archive of notebooks and business records in a secret lock-up in Manchester city centre.
It condenses twenty notebooks into one volume, and also contains posters, letters, invoices, diaries and studio notes, dating from August 1978 to late 1980. It is a full-colour, 220-page softback with a foreword by Jon Savage. Design is by John Coulthart with Lesley Gilbert and Abigail Ward.”
“The Persol 714 folding sunglasses are quite easily the most classic and sought after Persol ever made! Made legend by Steve McQueen both on screen, in movies such as the “Thomas Crown Affair ” and off.
As many are aware a favorite of McQueen were the Persol 714 but with custom tinted lenses. To pay tribute to this we are offering an eyegoodies exclusive: the Persol 714 with custom blue lenses. The top quality French optical lenses manufactured by Essilor and custom tinted provide 100% UV protection.”

Jeg har erklært min kjærlighet til gode og pene notatbøker mange ganger tidligere. Hvis du går for en fra Moleskine, hvilket er helt OK siden de er bra, kan du jo regne med å bli en av mange med Moleskine. Så sant du ikke får ditt individuelt pregede skinncover fra:
‘Post Overalls has its primary design idea deeply rooted in vintage work clothes and other functional garments-such as military outfits and outdoor garments-which are all evolved from work wear platform.’
