Paul Mison’s random stuff that doesn’t go elsewhere. Is it microblogging, or microactivity?

While never as famous or well-loved as the K2 and K6, I have a soft spot for the modernistic simplicity of the K8; unfortunately, nobody else does, and unlike the hundreds of listed examples of their forebears, most of the K8s are now gone, which makes it all the more lovely to come across an old record of them.</p>http://notes.husk.org/post/422030315http://notes.husk.org/post/422030315Tue, 02 Mar 2010 13:48:49 +0000imagereblogtelephone boxgpok8designarchitecture<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kxxpapKi4R1qz4vjro1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Do You Know?, a poster at a site devoted to <a href="http://www.radiolicence.org.uk/">the history of the UK radio licence</a>.</p>http://notes.husk.org/post/392670928http://notes.husk.org/post/392670928Tue, 16 Feb 2010 12:28:00 +0000imageradiowirelesslicenceradio licencegpoukhistorydesign<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kofl87LdI41qz4vjro1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://www.vads.ac.uk/x-large.php?uid=92511&sos=1">Please pack very carefully</a> - a Tom Eckersly advert for the GPO at the <a href="http://www.vads.ac.uk/collections/">VADS online archive</a> of <a href="http://www.vads.ac.uk/results.php?cmd=advsearch&words=eckersley+archive&field=all&oper=or&words2=&field2=all&mode=boolean&submit=search&TEC=1">his work.</a></p>http://notes.husk.org/post/163646218http://notes.husk.org/post/163646218Sat, 15 Aug 2009 19:40:54 +0100imagetom eckersleycatgpo1940sdesign
