This article has been edited and included in The Leadhead's Pencil Blog Volume 5; copies are available print on demand through Amazon here, and I offer an ebook version in pdf format at the Legendary Lead Company here.
If you don't want the book but you enjoy this article, please consider supporting the Blog project here.
This little gem is unmarked, which usually puts me off a bit, but it has a feature I hadn’t seen before:
The slider button is a snake, complete with tiny glass eyes and a little turquoise button. As big a fan as I am about snake clips, a snake slider was something I just couldn’t do without.
If it isn’t news, why run it here? Two reasons: first, not everyone is on facebook, no matter how heretical that may be. Second, facebook is like watching goldfish shoot through a firehose rather than in an aquarium. Without remembering who posted something and when, going back to refer to a picture you saw on that site is an impossibility; and even if you do, it is a royal pain sifting back through a timeline or a group’s page to find something.
So here this one is, tucked neatly away at Leadhead’s under a new tag: “Unmarked Victorians of note.” Should be easy enough to find now.
