So, I'm into science-fiction, and I recently have invested into to SF-themed paintings. Those are from a French artist named Manchu (real name Philippe Bouchet), who was the main illustrator for the SF collection of "Le Livre de Poche", a large mass-market paperback publisher in France. Here they are. The first one is for the book "Sundiver" by David Brin, which is the first book of his Uplift series. The second was the cover for "Citizen of the Galaxy" by Robert Heinlein. Both of those are most excellent books.
Manchu is still very much active and producing great SF art. Look him up on FB and IG if you're interested.

Can't say I ever thought I'd see UCSC mentioned on here. I'll have to check it out if I ever get back to campus.

I had a girlfriend attend there, while i was attending Humboldt State University, about 7 hours north of Santa Cruz. What a beautiful campus, both UCSC and HSU, redwoods everywhere and ocean views.
Speaking of Science Fiction, anybody read the three body problem trilogy. Wild stuff. honestly I have to reread it, last time was during a drinking while reading phase…

@Kasi awesome haul man! What are your impressions of the 555S-25MB?
-
They feel like 50oz..
Thickness of the fabric is more heavier than the standard 25oz..
It shame they they didn’t make it to the final productions.
You won’t find 555 in these only 888 coming out soon

Another Poten hat….. black chino cloth. These hats are seriously fucking beautiful and easily the best quality caps I have handled in the flesh.
The chino cloth, rather than being deep black, is a rather fetching shade of blue/black/grey and has a real depth to it.
