If you are a lover of great illustrations and children's books you have to see this picture in its entirety. I guess it's another illustration of The musicians of Bremen. Click the image!

Maybe you don't know who The Saint was and maybe you don't know that the car he drove, when he was played by Roger Moore in the TV show (1962-69), was a super-cool white Volvo P1800 (with licence plate ST1). You might not even know that PCL LinkDump has a number of nice links for photos, ephemera and brochures of Volvo P180o and other cars from around the world. But he does!
Hints: It helps if you are from Scandinavia or Eastern Europe; that's where they have been most successful so far. For the usual photo line-up the guy on the right should stand in the middle.
The image (has been cut) is made by comics artist Jack Kirby

Now it is official - Bibi has started a video blog obviously called Videos with Bibi! For many of us it is no secret that Bibi of Bibi's Box has uploaded loads of films to Google Video. We are talking classic quality film, classic cult movies, historic silent films, old cartoons, artsy experimental shorts and films that quite simply are in public domain. So far, on the blog, we can watch for example: Kurosawa's Rashomon, Eisenstein's Battleship Potemkin, Fritz Lang's M, Murnau's Nosferatu, Wiene's The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and The man Who Knew to Much by Hitchcock. How's that for a lesson in cinematographic history? It doesn't stop there. We get to watch animated Gulliver's Travels by Dave Fleisher, early 20th century funny trick filming, semi-documentary German films from the 20s and WWII stories by John Ford and John Huston. And more. You can't expect me to tell you everything, can you? Look for yourself!

The original Swedish Pippi Longstocking theme song on YouTube and here is one in English if that's your cup of tea. And in French(!) with charming illustrations! Three more original Pippi songs. Pippi, Tommy, Annika and Astrid Lindgren on Hylands Hörna in 1970. Pippi in a sword fight with Lennart Hyland (He was Sweden's Johnny Carson - kind of.) A longer clip from an episode where Pippi's father - Beppe Wolgers - appears (in Swedish of course).

The Last & Greatest Acrobatics is just one of Japanese Mizna Wada's illustration series' that you can find on her web site - Mizna Lens. At first I didn't think that her style was anything I'd like but I surrendered to her personal mix of disturbed cuteness and morbid humour. She tops it all of by executing her works with an impressive accuracy.

Quite a difference isn't it? They hope to finish all the episodes this spring. However these are so far only for the Italian/Spanish versions. Let's hope not for long!
