a world without corn is not a world at all!
Great collection! Nice mix of languages, eras, styles and mediums. I especially like the 'Aero' poster... the way the car is driving up that red 'X' gives the poster an almost 3-dimensional view (in a quirky, vintage-y way). Very cool.
Design Observer encourages comments to be short and to the point; as a general rule, they should not run longer than the original post. Comments should show a courteous regard for the presence of other voices in the discussion. We reserve the right to edit or delete comments that do not adhere to this standard.
