Mini Posters

I was once a part-time poster artist. So for nostalgic reasons, when I make a miniature scene I usually start with the wall art.

During the kickoff, I intentionally searched for old paper items to convert to framed pictures.  I came back with four books and one box of Monkey Brand Black Tooth Powder.


I was happy with the possibilities:

I ordered some simple frames from eBay, and applied to the illustrations as shown.



Then I added light color to some to match the litho paper on the storefront.


Results are below! I hung the Tooth Powder immediately to cover a hole in the wall. (I used temporary miniature wax to affix so the wall is preserved.)  I will wait to hang the others to see where they best fit.
