Obsolete: An Encyclopedia of Once-Common Things Passing Us By
Here’s the description from Amazon.
“Obsolete contains essays and entries on more than 100 alphabetized fading subjects, including Blind Dates, Mix Tapes, Getting Lost, Porn Magazines, Looking Old, Operators, Camera Film, Hitchhiking, Body Hair, Writing Letters, Basketball Players in Short Shorts, Privacy, Cash, and, yes, Books. This ode to obsolescence also includes 25 quirky pen-and-ink line illustrations to further help us remember exactly what we’re missing.”
These are the very things that Art in the Age longs to have back again. Well, maybe not body hair!
