vintage canadiana poster. denim. buttons. yes.

[update: I just wanted to clarify that I bought this. I'm sure you figured that out. I was amazed to find orginals still kicking around on ebay for a reasonable price. Also, as far as I'm concerned, the best kind of poster art, the kind that I hold dearest, is Canadian works. It's pretty difficult to find vintage Canadian posters, most are repros.

Also, you can see how much brighter the colours are compared to the image I posted a few days ago.]

Can you tell that I'm procrastinating on a big paper?
I love these young me - now me photos. The best of these are the ones that not only nail the outfits, but also the looks on their young faces. I dare you, loyal readership, to make one of your own.
