Welcome to my archive of whatever this stuff is.
I've made so much stuff I can hardly find a better category to put them in without making entire new categories for each of these designs, which would be not only a waste of my time to make, but yours as well. So here's a collection of some of the random odds and ends from my oeuvre.
I've truly done it all (so to speak, I haven't done it ALL. Not yet...)
Part of a slideshow on the television at the front desk of Mountain Room Escapes, this particular slide advertised an upcoming Christmas-themed role-playing game we offered that guests could book if they were in the mood for an RPG instead of an escape room.
Another slideshow slide, this one continues the artifact series, this time as a close up of a record from the 1920s bearing the (fictitious) song "(You and Me) In a Mountain Room Escape" as performed by the founder, Matt Vecchio. The Navajo Hotel Orchestra is a nod to the Navajo Hotel, a defunct business whose building still stands in our hometown, just not as a hotel.
One of many coptic sewn journals I've made over the years, this one has a pocket in the back and a few pieces of ephemera for flavor.
Stereographic cards made for my Hill and Dale Phonographic Tours concept, the front sides bear photos of different foliage as seen in the Arboretum at Cal State Fullerton, the backside has lore and other facts related to each plant and a link to hear a wax cylinder related to the region or culture the plant is from or is relevant to.
Not exactly a prop, and not exactly a replica. This is what's known as a Turkish map fold, and in taking the "map" part seriously I printed an antique map, aged it further, and created a distressed cover to make it look like it was carried all through Indian Territory, as it was know when this map was made.
Four designs I made for a penny press at Mountain Room Escapes. Countless pennies have been pressed on this thing and I feel like these designs will far outlast anything else I'll ever design (unless I do another penny press or design a bronze plaque or something).
I, of course, needed to have my own set of pennies embossed with my designs. It's always a delight to tell our guests that I designed them, how often does one meet the designer immediately after pressing their penny?
