Five Cent Cure

“Five Cent Cure” is an original handcut collage on a vintage book cover.

This old Histology textbook cover, is set to hang on aluminum wire, embellished with actual (devalued) Mexican pesos. The Histology book delivers a colorful plate of cells, which forms the background for an anatomical diagram, filled with all sorts of odd players. Old books and catalog imagery promise “5 cents down, $2 monthly”. The book edges are worn with some original writing and stains, but the collage is protected with a high gloss finish. Truly a one of a kind treat.

 

Lady Doll

“Lady Doll” is an original handcut collage on a vintage book cover. Vintage children’s book gives us the lady doll and text. Background is made up of one of a kind pages, produced with a chemical reaction to National Geographic ink. The book edges are worn, but the collage is protected with a high gloss finish. Truly a one of a kind gift, ready to hang with attached copper wire.

 

Mr. Fix-it

“Mr. Fix-it” is an original handcut mixed media collage on watercolor paper. Matted to 8”x10” and ready to frame, this guy is handy and helpful, with a very large hand. Painted acrylic background makes the images really pop.

 

Yvonne’s Obsession

“Yvonne’s Obsession” is an original handcut collage on a vintage book cover.

This old math textbook cover, along with original pencil markings, is set to hang on a copper wire, embellished with some ancient abacus beads (…okay, I’m making that part up…) Yvonne looks dreamy, surrounded by numbers, formulas and word problems. Math is her true obsession. The book edges are worn, but the collage is protected with a high gloss finish. Bonus is the graffiti on the back, where some destructive student wrote in pen “Yes, sir she’s my baby, no, sir I don’t mean maybe.” Truly a one of a kind treat.

 

Shoe Sale

“Shoe Sale” is an original handcut paper collage on heavy watercolor paper. This OOAK mini work of art comes in a black wood frame that will go on your wall or stand by itself on a shelf.

This little cutie features vintage catalog images, including a measuring chart for feet, along with some snazzy men’s shoes, for the ridiculously low price of 49 cents! A shoe sale, indeed.
