Sad Stuff on the Street - Greg Larson

. .

Résumé :
Welcome to Sad Stuff on the Street: The Book! With submissions from around the globe and visitors from 101 countries, this humble little blog has become the world's preeminent hub for melancholy detritus. For years, we've specialized in doll heads, board game parts, and discarded birthday cakes. You've brought us your tired, your poor, your single shoes. And now comes a physical version of this universe of meaningful trash, designed by the legendary Todd Oldham. 100% of proceeds from this book will go to the National Alliance on Mental Illness. We hope you like it! -- Sloane and Greg -- http://sadstuffonthestreet.com/bo
