found a neat toy project
« on: Monday 22 August 2011, 01:00 am »
I stumbled across this project on the net they want to publish a book on toys and are looking for supporters if interested check it out. It looks like a nice book on toys and what it means when we play with them.

A neat idea but I wonder how it differs from the totally tubular 80s book and other reference guides about 80s toys?

It is an art project it is consisted of larger then life photos of random toys he has found over the years. All the toys have wear and tear on them . By playing with your toys you make them unique to any other toy because the wear marks on them were made with your own hands or some thing along that line...
