Robinsons treasure

Stopped by Robinson's and they love yellow and black. Here's a yellow and black coffee maker.

End of watermarks

I decided to stop watermarking images I post here. I realized it was taking too much of my time and that I couldn't update the blog as often. Also I dislike when other people watermark their images as well as realizing I'm pilfering their images under fair use to post here. It's also a result of using more web images rather than those I capture myself. You may notice posts in 2011 have no watermarks.

Bunny suicide

Another fancy contribution and it's indeed an object of desire for me. Here's the description from fancy

Fancy bugatti

Finding yellow and black things for this blog is not easy. You can say it's a full time job. So I've resorted to other sites and apps to help me. I often use this iOS app called Fancy. Here's one of it's contributions. Any contributions from Fancy will have the fancy tag attach. It's not cause I fancy the word fancy, it's just to tag the source as fancy.

Taken from Fancy and http://silodrome.com/1937-bugatti-type-57-roadster-by-worblaufen/

Swiss coachbuilder Worblaufen was responsible for some truly remarkable auto designs between 1929 and 1958. The Bugatti Type 57 pictured above and below is a fine example of Worblaufen’s work and it’s also quite possibly they’re most famous project.

Bugatti produced just 710 Type 57s between 1934 and 1940, they used a modified 3.3 litre twin-cam engine also used in the Type 49. The car was capable of over 100mph, was said to handle well and was used by many wealthy buyers as their primary racing car.

This particular Type 57 is going under the hammer at the upcoming Montery RM Auction being held on the 19th and 20th of August 2011, you can view the cars listing page here. There is currently no listed reserve but if you guessed “millions” you’ll be pretty close, a recently auctioned Type 57 went for 3.4 million Euros.
