One of the fun things about collecting the work of Leo and Diane Dillon is that there is no bibliography to work from. They’ve illustrated everything from picture books to record sleeves to science fiction magazines – and there’s no list, as far as I’ve been able to find. It turns collecting into a process of discovery. In the late 1950s and early 1960s Leo Dillon was an illustrator for Galaxy Science Fiction, but there is no list of issues that contain his work. The magazines themselves aren’t that hard to find online – but you have to physically flip through them one at a time to see if there is any Dillon art in them, and finding them in person is more unusual! I just found seven issues at a book sale with art by Leo Dillon I’d never seen before – March 1957, August 1957, September 1957, October 1957, August 1959, October 1959, and February 1960. A real goldmine! The careers of Leo and Diane Dillon have spanned over fifty years, so it’s really interesting to look at that early work.

This was a "million-dollar" decision, but the machine would enable them to turn out a wide variety of spiral wire and plastic coil bound books at a rate of 10 times greater than most of the similar systems available. They made the purchase. Today, they own one of the two such machines in North America, and are able to crank out high-quality mechanically-bound orders of 300,000 or so faster (and with less cost) than their competitors.

I would probably collect maps, especially geologic maps. I think they’re a fascinating way of displaying 3D information on a 2D surface.

Majority of consumers move from convenience to convenience. That’s the very nature of product design and marketing. You like switching your media from time to time and that’s great, but that’s not what majority of customers do.

The rest of us pay a price for those views. New York’s luxury towers are blocking out the sun in Central Park, Manhattan’s historic commons. The superrich are altering our lived environment for the worse.

Photobook Australia is the local branch of a worldwide organisation supplying photobooks and other printing services. It promises to ship projects within seven days to addresses within Australia.

It was a revealing, very human moment from a man whose presidency brought about the Iraq war. Once widely reviled, Bush has gained public sympathy in a new role as a grieving son, though the cost of the war reverberates to this day.

I have right about 100 items in my Leo and Diane Dillon collection and 25 editions of Tales of Shakespeare.

Keep ticket stubs from first movies, family trips, and kiddie shows in a convenient shadow box that will fill up over the years to create a cool piece of wall art.

We won’t be seeing the bio-ink used anytime soon, though. As with all medical breakthroughs it needs to undergo rigorous testing and review before being approved.

At least not according to their new book, “Builder Brothers: Big Plans” (HarperCollins; $17.99; 32 pp.), which publishes Tuesday. The HGTV stars will be in The Woodlands to meet their youngest fans and sign copies of their book — the first in a series — on Saturday.

“In 2010, we merged Brennan Printing with Print Express and that’s when I started getting into printing cookbooks,” Hartkemeyer recalled.
