We found a small stack of greeting cards from 1983 *in* Willis Wonderland *of* Willis Wonderland. That was just 3 years after Allee Willis moved in. We were surprised by how much of the furniture, art, and even plants are still in the house today, some 42 years later.

Willis Wonderland is full of surprises. We found a stack of 1983 greeting cards in a cabinet. The photo shows the living room three years after Allee moved in. A version of it ended up in the book that helped popularize "mid-century modern." New post up.

This is what the Willis Wonderland pop-up book looked like in progress. The top is called a “white dummy,” with no story, no color, just blank pages to test the folds and motion. The bottom is the finished book. Pretty neat, right?
