Cleaning House

Cleaning out a million boxes of childhood books from my basement, I found some real gems. Some junk, but from junk comes gems:

Salvaged these kick-ass transparencies from "The See Through History of ANCIENT EGYPT" (!!). Definitely getting used for something soon, hopefully in conjunction with my new ghetto fab screen printing t-shirt press (I'll post some pictures of that beauty soon. Also built fully from basement material, didn't cost a  dime!).

 

The Temple of Khons. Who knew?

BURIAL TOMB!

(the tomb of Sennedjem, to be exact)

King's Palace

Village Houses: "As children grew up and married, they subdivided their parents' house..." HAH.

Toy Jets

 Tell me you didn't love these back in the day (I dare you):

"The four styrofoam aiplanes in this assortment are modeled after four legendary United States military airplanes. These planes are - S-3A Viking, C-130E Hercules, Lockheed C-130E Hercules, and the LTV Aerospace A-7"

Part of the inspiration for the "stealthjets" image from my Glory Days triptych were the shadows cast by a Styrofoam glider like these.
