This past weekend I was visiting a friend in her small town and we went into a vintage store that specialized in furniture. As we wandered the store I could not help but notice all the fantastic drawer pulls on the dressers (seen below).

Another advertising meeting but this time at the famous O’Keefe’s Pub (this pub was clearly popular in the 1950’s with the working set). What do you think is happening in this photo? Did Esther’s work get chosen?
