#found in old books

Advertisement from the early part of the 20th century, easily pre 1920, since the telephone number only has three digits! (The back simply has the customers address in Massena, NY)

Found in a copy of "Modern Book-Keeping", J.L. Montgomery, 1902 edition

Behold thou art fair, my beloved, behold thou art fair..let me see thy face, let me hear thy voice. For thy voice is harmonious and thy face enchanting, thou has ravished my heart...thy lips drop as the honeycomb....thy palate a heady wine that goes straight to my love and flows over my lips and teeth....

Finally finished this huge piece! Took ~14h in total 😮‍💨 But I think it was worth it! 🙌🏻

Had a lot of fun drawing my fave Rafayel from the game loveanddeepspace once more 💁‍♀️ AND with the long hair again 😌 Really pleased that I managed to pull both his and Sylus’s card yesterday

Lo and behold! My grandma's complete collection of Granada Holmes! She's the person who introduced me to it (at age 7 or 8) practically watched it over and over with me, borrowed me the og acd books and made me learn english (you could watch it either in english with subtitles or shitty polish dabing. We are not polish.)

Ain't they precious?

When I was 13-14 I had just come to terms with the fact that I was attracted to women, but I was very closeted and so I would try to “cleverly” hide my true feelings in my drawings. I really though writing “cat suits are never not not not going to never not be not not hot” would somehow throw people off the trail of what I was trying to say. Same with writing “girls with guns,” (and then, in tiny letters) “are hot” would keep people from realizing I’m a homo. Truly one of my baby gay moments of all time
