New Year's Day I'd gone to an Antique Show at the Armory and bought an old The Adventures of Peter Cottontail children's book published in 1941. It was in pretty rough shape, the hardcover back broken off but the inside was pretty intact. It had a few wonderful color illustrations. I'd recently made some shadowboxes for something different to use for rabbit show awards. This book gave me an idea. I'd take the color illustrations, cut some of the text out and make a whimsical book page inside a shadowbox. I also did a Winter Bunny box placing an actual rabbit knawed-on stick inside. How is that for authentic? Photos below, click on them to enlarge them. There is a bit of glare because of the glass. Love to hear some feedback, email me!
Finally got some more photos up, two broken senior bucks and yes a few juniors. The jrs aren't mature enough to show but may take one to the CCRBA show in a couple of weeks. Otherwise it is a "show drought" until April in Maine.
