Some of you might remember that a few weeks back, we featured a Peter Cook-based Bedazzled poster by Piper Gates Design. Well, to accompany that, Piper Gates Design have done a companion piece – the Dudley Bedazzled poster.

Yes, this time featuring co-star and long-time Cook partner Dudley Moore as Stanley Moon, it's again done in the style of a vintage Penguin book and in a limited edition of just 30.

The print is sized at 500mm x 700mm and printed on 194 gram paper, signed by the artist. Get one while you can as there are only eight left as I write. It retails for just £22.99. See the print framed over the page.

Ken Garland 1960s ‘Galy Tots’ print reissued by Trunk Records

Posted on | Leave a comment

Galt

If you're after some quirky 1960s art, this Ken Garland Galt Toys print just might fit the bill.

Ken Garland was art editor of Design Magazine, and eventually set up Ken Garland And Associates in 1963, for whom he did work for James Galt And Sons, much of which is highly sought-after by design aficionados.

Amazingly, this is the first time his work has been reprinted, with the work in question being a reprint of imagery used in the 1969 / 70 Galt Toy brochure. Limited to just 25 prints, each print is hand numbered, annotated with 'Galy Tots', 'Galt Toys Catalogue Cover 1969 / 70', 'Ken Garland And Associates' and is hand signed by the man himself. If you want one, it retails for £200.

eBay watch: Nissan Figaro retro-styled car

Posted on | Leave a comment

Figaro

Ok, this has come about because of a train of thought. Back in 2006, we did a piece on Nissan's retro car range, something I was reminded of when I spotted the bizarre Nissan S-Cargo on eBay. But this isn't flagging that vehicle up, it's flagging up the altogether more common, but equally eye-catching Nissan Figaro.

We're flagging up one example on eBay, but right now there are between 70 and 80 examples of the limited edition retro-styled sports car on eBay – so if you're reading this post a bit late, keep checking as they are always plentiful and in all the colours. Something to suit all budgets if you like.

Interesting that Citroen was running an 'anti-retro' campaign recently, Obviously didn't tick too many boxes, as the company has now gone retro, specifically with the Citroen DS3 by Orla Kiely.

But it's not gone too retro. The selling point here is the same Citroen DStyle HDi 90 model that's been around for a while, only this time it comes with a choice of four Orla Kiely designs for the exterior. There's also plenty of interior detail, including stem print rear window graphics, a colour contrasting dashboard, themed door handle inserts, Orla Kiely embossed multi-coloured headrests on the leather seats and stem or acorn print carpet mats for the interior detail.
