Treasures from THE TOYS & GAMES COLLECTION at The Willing Mind. By exclusive arrangement with The Grand Review.

Print size 22 x 24, and consciously formatted to work with a standard size store bought frame, or custom framed as you see fit.


One of the many joys of how we go about our work is connecting with collectors of various types. One friend, a devoted toy collector, brought me in to see some unusual tin cars that we plan to shoot together down the line. While there, I was treated to access to some of his toy related paper treasures. He allowed me to scan several gems which are currently waiting in our backlog of work to be done, but this amazing promo shot we rushed to the front burner.

How delightfully 1950s this shot is. Yes, we have changed and no, we would never again produce a kid's toy capable of shooting make believe atomic missiles at ol' Sparky. Yes, the realities this makes light of are the horrors of the atomic age, the whole Cold War and the doctrine of Mutually Assured Destruction, yet this one photo manages to acknowledge and lampoon all that at once.

Originally a promotional photograph for the biggest annual industry toy show in the Western Hemisphere, now an amazing window into a moment in time...

2nd image is for reference, and for fun.

A NOTE ON OUR PROCESS, OUR CHOICES AND THE QUALITY OF THE GRAPHIC CRAFTSMANSHIP THAT GOES INTO OUR PRINTS.

Every print we deem exciting enough to present to the public via our Etsy store or available here at our studio has gone through a number of steps. The first of those is always discovering and falling in love with an obscure image, always an original that we can hold in our hands. That image is speaking to us, sometime screaming “Don’t leave me here. See what I am, what I was, what I can be, what I SHOULD be!”

There is a real sense of excitement involved, and a great many smiles and knowing grins when we make that deal and bring that ancient print, that battered photo, that scrap of ephemera that contains some scrap of genius from an unknown commercial artist home with us, knowing already how we mean to approach its restoration.

There is the heady promise of a further hunt just as real as what drags a weekend fisherman out of bed at 3AM to work a favorite brook as we start our research, looking for that great backstory, and both ready and willing to tumble down as many rabbit holes as are revealed to us to get that story.

Then there is a meticulous digital restoration that is as often as much fun as riding a vintage Moto Guzzi on a winding coastal road. I don’t care if that sounds crazy, it really is like jumping in the saddle! So many choices, so many chances to take to subtly or spectacularly give new life to otherwise permanently obscure images.

This dedication and the ongoing rush of joy in the accomplishment of it, and the opportunity to share the results in our studio and here on Etsy, is the fire of passion that keeps these engines roaring. We make every effort to ensure our customers are not just satisfied but thrilled, and we happily stand 100% behind our work.

So good
Format: Paperback
When your one-night stand turns out to be the surgeon that you subpoenaed for a malpractice lawsuit. Ana, an unappreciated lawyer, has been passed up for promotion to her male colleagues yet again. A malpractice lawsuit win could be what she needs to finally get the promotion she’s worked so hard for. Rachel, a cardiac surgeon who goes above and beyond for her patients, is subpoenaed to testify in a malpractice lawsuit. Arriving at the law firm for her deposition, Rachel discovers that the lawyer for the family who filed the lawsuit is Ana Mendez. As in Ana, her one-night stand. I was excited to get my hands on this one! I loved that Ana and Rachel were so different from each other in personalities, looks, backgrounds, and religions. The differences made them unique and interesting to me. The banter was well-written, and I loved how feisty they were towards each other in the beginning. Was the dirty talk unexpected? Very much so. I was not prepared for that or for how hot things had gotten. And while I did enjoy the spice, I would’ve liked for there to have been more communication about the conflict too. The references to The Golden Girls and The Sims? Oh, I totally geeked out over that! Overall, it was a good sapphic romance that I’m sure others will enjoy. I’d like to thank NetGalley and Bold Strokes Books for the arc. This is my voluntary review.

A Conflict of Interest Worth Taking
Format: Paperback
This is the second book by Morgan Adams, and I thoroughly enjoyed it! One of the main characters, Ana Mendez, appears in Adams's first book, but that is not a requirement for reading this story about her and Dr. Rachel Cohen. One of the tropes in this book is one night to forever, and I enjoyed the time it took for the two characters to re-meet and figure out their issues. I thought their relationship developed well on the page. It was believable, had some humor, and was QUITE spicy. I liked each character's relationships with friends and family, too; they helped to make Ana and Rachel more than just two women who are well-established in their careers. A Conflict of Interest is a fascinating medical/legal story alongside a romantic one. I would recommend it to readers who want to read about two competent and mature adults who have to navigate their careers as well as a romance. Thank you to the author and the publisher for the opportunity to read and review the arc of this book!

Great read.
Format: Kindle
Cardiac surgeon Rachel Cohen is doing what she always knew she wanted to do. Her family lived close by so when she wanted or needed her family, there they were. After working most of the night operating on people who arrived hurt and scared she was more than ready for a nice cold drink. It’s There she meets the drop-dead- gorgeous woman and since it’s been a while since she’d taken some play time for herself. Ana Mendez has been trying to get herself noticed so maybe, just maybe when there is a promotion coming around her office. Ana’s family lived in the locality and like Rachel she found herself trying to make time for them but right now she hardly has time to think, getting ready for the trial that Ana felt she had to win. Ana is looking for some fun and when she goes to the same bar,who should meet is one of the sexiest women Ana has seen. Since the attraction is kind of off the charts they both decide to add, hopefully, a lot of sex to their evening, That is how it all starts. Very nice read. ARC via NetGalley/ Bold Stroke Books

Club Velvet series
Format: Kindle
Oh wow, I thoroughly enjoyed books 1 and 2. The characters are such a pleasure to read and see in my mind’s eye. Love Hazel and maybe when you write the next 2, or could be 3, books if you include Ashton, Hazel might have a sibling…and a bunch of cousins. Eager for more as I do love those books by Ms. Stone. Thank you…
