About Me

- Louie Gee
- Typical History buff - I love anything old, be it as big as a building or as small as a button. Generally though, I do prefer things from the 30s, 40s and 50s because they were such stylish decades. I collect old books (and a lot of new ones!), though not in any serious "I want it because it's rare" kind of way - more just to have them. And I would love, love, LOVE to travel but don't have the money. Alas...

I just found your blog during a search for Elliott Erwitt dogs. I love it! Would you consider linking or providing info on where you find your photos? Or is that part of the mystery/attraction/allure? Regardless -- wonderful blog!
Oh, thank you - that is so nice of you!! :)
I honestly don't remember where I found most of them! Years of internet surfing and an obsessive need to collect photos!
I do remember where I first saw the Erwitt photo though - it was in his book 'Dog Dogs' published by Phaidon. I bought a copy in a charity shop a few years ago because it was so wonderful - a couple of hundred pages of nothing but photos of dogs!! Anyone who doubts that dogs have personality has obviously never seen this book! If you ever see a copy, I thoroughly recommend it!
