Before Dr. Seuss heard a who, he saw his work saturate the advertising field. The above piece is from the National Broadcasting Company Brochure in 1940. The University of California, San Diego’s Mandeville Special Collections Library has an entire site dedicated to Seuss’ advertising work. Cool, eh? (ht WSJ)
Okay, so who’s buying this for us? This fetching piece by environmental artist Dodi Reifenberg depicts who we’ll call “the couple of the century,” Silvio Berlusconi and Karima El Mahroug, better known as “Ruby The Heart Stealer.” Reifenberg apparently used scotch tape and plastic bags to produce this triumphant piece of artwork. Berlusconi’s trial, facing charges that he slept with the then-underage Ruby, has been adjourned until May. source
