Vinyl Toy Designs: Please Vote for your Favorite!















I have been thinking of making a limited edition vinyl toy to be sold by myself, and hopefully vendors such as my good friends at Cardboard Spaceship (a terrific toy/original art/prints/t-shirts, etc. shop) in Santa Cruz, CA www.cardboardspaceship.net One of the owners, Jamey, was kind enough to post this thread on the Kid Robot discussion forum to help me choose the winning design http://forums.kidrobot.com/viewtopic.php?t=80773 Please leave your comments, either on this blog or through the link provided, I am very interested in everyone's opinions! Thanks! --Mike

O'Malley's Nuns

I love finding old books of cartoonists, especially if I had never heard of them before. This book I found for $5 at the De Anza Flea Market in Cupertino, CA, and it even had an original sketch from the author in it! It is a 1950's collection of nun cartoons that are not as funny today as they probably were back then, but I enjoy the art style of Bill O'Malley and the sketch is great!
