Given your enthusiasm, it may surprise you to learn that Tardvark was not one of our more financially successful releases (inasmuch as any of them were). Not sure you can DM on this platform, but if you can get me your shipping address we’ll set you up

The better version is when those who have questioned your Box o’ Old Cables find that they need something from it. Mockery turns to appreciation and respect just like that!

Suggested location for the meet up: Nicholas Galanin piece at the Seattle Art Museum

The Girls Who Went Away by Ann Fessler. A fairly harrowing investigation of the experiences of the young women who surrendered their children for adoption post-WWII.

Happy to see the shout out to the Tobacco and Salt Museum. I dragged my daughter there when we visited a while back. Racks of vintage cigarette package designs…
We have niche museums in the states, too, though. Check the Busy Beaver Button museum when you’re in Chicago
