Message to the World

Over the past month, we have been getting loads of items from Cannon Knitting Mills, which is being closed down in Hamilton. Some of the items that have come back are sewing tables, step ladders, workbenches, filing drawers and cabinets. One item that broke everyones back to get here was this fantastic safe that has thee nicest detailing. Check it out on our flickr account.

Muddy York

Someone has gone and posted themed vintage photos of Toronto on Youtube. Most are accompanied by insipid and distracting soundtracks. This one, at least, has a more or less enjoyable oldtimey nasal tune ala Mother's Restaurant. And lots of pictures of carriages stuck in ridiculously muddy roads.

Pretty

Our Flickr site buzzes with people who are adding us, tagging their favourites and commenting on items in the store. This is all appreciated and sometimes we go creeping to other people's profiles to see what kind of people like our stuff. In this case, Vegas Kent has some pretty pictures that spread all around the world. Through their camera, I have seen Toronto in a new light.

Headlines

Smash has graced some more headlines this week, including a mention in this week's issue of Eye Weekly. Yes, we print and sell Keep Calm Carry On Posters.

We also have been a part of Globe and Mail's fashion shoot for fall trends, which, thanks to the photographer, our furnishings look great with beautiful people on them.
