letterheady

sometimes you find that you have an interest in something you never realized you were interested in! like baking with teff flour, or leafy tattoos, or... cool letterheads.

yes.

did you know that john wayne had his own letterhead? of course he did, he was famous. but still, somehow, he doesn't seem the type.... (pun absolutely intended.) well, he was not alone. charlie chaplin, neil diamond, steve mcqueen, nikola tesla—they all had them. aren't you pretty curious as to what they looked like? me too. and thanks to letterheady, a fabulous blog featuring wildly interesting vintage letterheads (including those from airlines and fan clubs and such), we now have access to such knowledge. look!
