Lately I'm uploading a lot pictures of Street Art. I went to Austin and Oaxaca, so there's stuff from there too. It's mostly from around Boston.
I was using this Flickr account mostly to upload scans of my book collection, but I got tired of it. As far as I'm concerned, anyone who wants to use a scan of one of my books, to sell the book, or illustrate a blog about the book is welcome to it. It's an open source collection if you will. Print it out even, I don't care. I believe it would be nice if we could find all the covers on the web by publisher and number, or author, or cover artist, fully indexed. So I'm trying to do my bit by sharing mine. It's mostly pulp fiction, vintage sleaze, almost all mass market, and usually between 1940 and 1980, with a few exceptions. If I get that done perhaps I will do select hardcovers.
