No, you shouldn't. Part of the appeal of a blog which you've demonstrated to be a great deal of fun, but also a window to the past.
ReplyDeleteThis one is fun. I wonder at what point the Wold came to be.
Pre-electricity? I doubt it. You have to have air pressure to use an airbrush, and reference is made to it being used by a showcard (read that, sign) artist as being a useful tool.
Another great find.
I've been using airbrushes for a little while. It's interesting to see a piece of where one of my favorite tools came from.
