Snapshots from my collection of Japanese midcentury Christmas ornaments.
A close-up shot of a vintage Christmas tree ornament hanging on a Christmas tree. Multicolor string lights (red, green, yellow, blue) appear in the background. The ornament consists of two elves: one wearing a green suit, on the left; the other wearing a red suit. They are holding the handle of a large decorative umbrella, which is green with gold edging. The ornament is made from felted wool and was manufactured in Japan.

Side shot of the character Kei’s face from Katsuhiro Otomo’s Akira (1988). She has dark, cropped hair, a serious but determined expression with a slight frown, and is wearing a beige suit with a raised collar. The backdrop is a watercolor wash of cool browns, blues, and pinks.

my black-and-white album kings
Album cover of Lewis Baloue’s private press, cult classic LP of tender, plaintive love songs sung to piano, “L’Amour.” It is a portrait headshot of Baloue, a younger man with handsome features and blonde, feathered hair, looking into the camera with a sad-but-seductive expression. Black and white, cubism-style album cover art for Sun Ra’s “The Heliocentric Worlds of Sun Ra.” Black and white photo of Klaus Nomi, for the cover art of his self-titled LP. He is wearing a black and white tuxedo in an exaggerated, triangular shape that gives him the appearance of wide shoulders, and he looking directly into the camera from a slight side angle. The name “Klaus Nomi” appears above his head in white, sans serif lettering. Black and white illustration of what appears to be a man’s face, sectioned by long white vertical lines, for the cover of The Giuseppe Logan Quartet’s LP.
