**STAFF PICKS**

Here are some gem-gem-gems staff picked from our shelves:

Front Cover
Hand Job: A Catalog of Type 
Comic Sans got ya down? If so, this collection of typography (brought to you by cool kid Mike Perry) introduces super cool fonts, type and illustrations by various artists that will inspire your imagination rather than evoke strong feelings of hatred.

Front Cover
Manhole Covers
FIRE IN THE HOLE! Manhole, that is. Manhole covers, often overlooked by those walking over them, are shown in a whole new light. The covers shown are ornately composed and displayed in black and white photographs. If in the past you have been guilty of not paying attention to manhole covers, it's okay. But as of now you have no excuse not to show them love. You are now doomed to look down forevvver.


Steam, Steel & Stars
Alllllll aboard! Steam, Steel and Stars takes us on a majestic journey through the last days of the steam-powered railroad. Lots of beautiful black and white portraits with a nostalgic feel, taking you way back when to those good old days of a simpler time where the choo-choo was king.
