We Are Shaped And Fashioned By What We Love

I was looking for something in my flat files, and found this old decal sheet. It was from an original AMT "Two in One" kit, and somehow survived 40+ years to find its way into my greasy mitts.

It is so beautiful, I am almost moved to tears. I immediately threw it on the scanner to share with you, O dear reader.

Everything about it fires up my brain. All those classic logos, the ersatz Roth/Jefferies monster graphic, the halftone Benday dots used to print the flames, even the scuffed, yellowed decal paper, just WOW. It is such a beautiful thing, it makes me dizzy.

And you haven't even seen the back yet.

I may swoon. I want these images tattooed on the inside of my eyelids.
