Love 8-bit console games? Tell the world with this Nintendo NES reversible messenger bag.
Essentially, it's a messenger bag with an adjustable shoulder strap and room for a laptop up to 15 inches. But it's all about the design. One side is the classic NES controller, the other side is a pattern made out of tiny controllers. What's not to love?
If you want one, $36.99 gets you one.
There was a hugely-expensive, extremely limited edition book about the subject a couple of years back. Thankfully, the Beauty Is In The Street book, also known as A Visual Record of the May '68 Paris Uprising, is more affordable and plentiful.
The subject matter is the May 1968 student protests in Paris, which also spread to factories and other workplaces to create a general strike that brought the country to a standstill. Among the students were a group called the Atelier Populaire, which produced hundreds of posters to encourage the protestors and to report on police brutality.
This book reproduces over 200 of these iconic posters, as well as featuring a number of photographs, many published for the first time and translations of first-hand accounts of the clashes between the students, strikers and the police. 272 pages and published by Four Corners Books, this hardback book is available for £25.

We love a record player, as you might have noticed, with this 1950s Dansette Major record player just catching our eye.
It appeals for a couple of reasons. Firstly, it's a Dansette, an icon of an era and still a functional record player in its own right. But even better, this one has been fully serviced and restored by a Dansette service engineer, so everything works, from the valves to the auto-changer. It even comes with the relevant paperwork and stylus details.
It is worth noting that this late-50s player is in original, rather than restored condition, so expect some wear over the years. However, it is described as being in 'excellent clean' condition, with original bronzed hinges, lid fasteners, and carry handle mounts, as well as the original black and gold model label, and address label. Right now, the bidding is at £10.50 with no reserve.
