Rexall Symbol Water Bottle

Here’s one hell of a box made for Rexall Drug Co. Very few words to describe it. Modern and simplicity. That’s it. One of my favorites here. And of course the awesome look of old printed matter.

Rexall was a chain of North American drugstores, and the name of their store-branded products. More info on wikipedia »

Here’s another water bottle box from Rexall that I found on Flickr »

Tchaikovsky Concerto No. 1

Record cover for Tchaikovsky. Concerto No. 1. Wilhelm Strauss, Pianist. Igor Kousevsky, Conducting the International Symphony Orchestra.

Those bars look like an equalizer. Makes it feel like the music itself.

Quick Snaps: DDT – Insect Killer

Ok, so I’m trying something else. Sometimes there are things that don’t get to come with me because of its size, etc. so I snap photos of things I like. Yes, they are crappy iPhone photos but you get the idea. Let me know what you think about posting these items along with all the good ones?

Here’s some DDT from Thompson Chemicals Corporation for all your insects and some funky silver spray paint from Craft House Products.

Bell & Howell Imagination

Here’s a couple very cool kitschy brochures from Bell & Howell’s 8 mm movie camera and projector. I love the amount of color they added into the pages and the use of simple shapes plus overprint. Circles always attract my eye. It’s printed over a very textured paper. Typography is also very playful, clean and well organized.
