Saul Bass’ Children’s Book Is Being Reprinted, 50 Years Later
Film aficionados everywhere can recognize the work of Saul Bass within nanoseconds of viewing it. The designer had a unique style that is being emulated (sometimes too much so) to this day. Just take a look at the iconic posters for Vertigo or West Side Story and you’ll see what I mean. The man’s style and talent are undeniable.
But did you know that Saul Bass also created a children’s book? Only one, mind you, but in 1962, Bass teamed with Leonore Klein to create Henri’s Walk To Paris. In the years since, it has gone out of print and has been considered a rare collector’s item by Bass’ acolytes. But now, fifty years after its original publication, Henri’s Walk To Paris has been re-printed and can be ordered online (or, presumably, at brick and mortar book stores).
You can view additional photos of the book at Brain Pickings.

Eric Tan’s Long Live The King.
If yo’re a movie fan and you spend any amount of time on the internet (which, clearly, you do), then it’s likely that you’ve seen the work of Eric Tan. Tan recently created this incredible piece based on The Lion King. In his own words:
Eric Hutchison, a fellow artist at Disney came up with a cool idea to create our own stylized piece based on one of Disney’s famous villains. These interpretive pieces would eventually go into a hallway gallery on campus which showcased each artists’ take on a familiar foe. I chose Scar from The Lion King.
It sounds like this was a one-off piece, but hopefully it’ll go for sale sometime in the future. As The Lion King is my favorite Disney movie, I’d kill to have this hanging on my walls. We’ll keep our ears to the ground.

These Game of Thrones House Banners Bring the Cute.
“Cute” is not an aspect that one would usually associate with anything Game of Thrones related, but artist Renaud Forestié has managed to pull it off with these adorable Game of Thrones house sigils.
These don’t seem to be available to purchase anywhere, which is a damn shame.
