Trashpo Books!  At last I am sharing some of them with you.

 

From Alicia..... A book that is tied shut and opens to flaunt it's delights and fun.  There is even an undercover man but there must be a max on the # photos I can load in one thread.  It only let me do 3 of them.  Great book, Alicia.  Thank you!

Got this great fashion trashbook from Canada, but I don't know who sent it. These are not all the pages, just some highlights. I love the use of magazines and footwear!

"Milk Eggs Vodka"- is one of the books on shopping lists. I was super fascinated with PostSecret too. That's a great but emotional read. But yes! I cherish finding anything handwritten on the ground.

Comment by Dean aka Artist in Seine on January 9, 2012 at 8:56am

I agree about the shopping or the "to do" lists.  They are sometimes very funny.  Mainly when they are yours, but you can not remember what they are about.  Does anyone know of the person who did an expo on shopping lists?

Comment by Neil Gordon on January 8, 2012 at 7:52pm

I think shopping lists are one of the highest forms of trashpo, because what we buy eventually ends up as trash. Plus... people write funny things on their lists!!!!!

The "Winged Car" is amazing.

Svenja's Dkoder ring represents a new era for the DKULT. The safety standards are superb

Those are fabulous. Unhappy-happy accidents, maybe.

Glad you are back Erni! Oh, I did not know about the Auto Stonehenge. That's great. Yes Erni, I suppose many sculptors have used cars. When I searched I found a bunch of things by John Chamberlain. It says these are "Car Crash" sculptures. Gruesome, I suppose. The even darker side of roaDKill
