ILLUSTRATION
Thanks to Miguel for introducing me to the wonderful work of BORT, 60s Spanish record cover designer and book illustrator, lovely stuff. Miguel is currently putting together a book of his personal collection of record covers.
You can see more example here at Las carátulas de BORT. They also have a small gallery of BORT’s work in El Raval Barcelona.
Those clever people at adicciones porquesi have collaborated with type republic to put together a collection of butcher related packaging graphics.

The inauguration is today, with two events. More info here at adicciones porquesi.
