Avid collector

Recently some items were auctioned that I feel I have a serious interest in:

♥ Marie Antoinette’s green silk slippers

Auctioned in 2012 on the anniversary of her execution on 16 October 1793, the slippers hint at the extravagant spending habits of the queen nicknamed ‘Madame Deficit’ during her lifetime.
Sold for about €50,000.

Must have...

Good Advertising

A spoof * ad, found in Adbusters:

"Have no fear - he’s a vegetarian." 1936,
John Heartfield.
