Motivational posters might be a bit passé these days, but these are too good to write off. Illustrated by Patricia Ellen Ricci in the 1970s, I love the punchy colours, hand lettering and simple shapes. They are/were available (unsurprisingly most of them have sold now) from Etsy seller Vintage Goodness.
very nice off to take a look.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, thanks for sharing - I love them. x
ReplyDeleteThey're quite edible aren't they!
ReplyDeleteLovely words - and they have certainly brightened up a grey, wet monday. Have a good week. Karen x
ReplyDeleteThey're gorgeously graphic and spiritually uplifting. I think they might need to be juxtaposed with something gritty - just in case anyone thinks I've found religion. x
ReplyDeleteYes there is something a little bit Sunday School about them isn't there? Perhaps I shall start a new design movement - Sunday School chic. It will involve hassocks and clapping.
Deletei'll be posting a bit of sunday school chic tomorrow - telepathic blog posting again! love the colour combos. especially that yellow and green at the bottom. and i'm a sucker for ee cummings. x
DeleteI can't wait to see! *claps and sings*
DeleteI kept waiting for them to get sarcastic. I'm such an arse.
ReplyDeleteNo you're spot on - the flower one in particular is asking for a bit of snark at the bottom.
DeleteThanks for sharing these bright little things on such a dark miserable day
ReplyDelete:)
