“The 80s were a very interesting period for bikes in India. I saw people discarding old #models and buying new bikes very fast. I wondered what happened to those old #bikes, and that’s when I hit upon the idea of collecting them", says Vinit Kenjal, the man behind the museum. Image
#Vinit also points out that vintage bikes evoke a sense of nostalgia in visitors. “From dropping children to school and taking your beloved on long rides to giving lifts to strangers, there are several emotions associated with scooters.
I want to give the older generation an opportunity to relive those moments again,” he adds.

Today let's talk a bit on why vintage posters are so valuable.

#nft #nftcommunity #vintage
Vintage posters are more than just a piece of paper, they are a window into the past. There have been several vintage poster sales that have fetched high prices, proving that these pieces of art still hold value.
The highest sale for a vintage poster was for the 1927 sci-fi classic movie Metropolis. It was designed by German artist Heinz Schulz-Neudamm.

In 2005 it was sold at auction for $690,000 – the highest price ever paid for a poster. Image

Have you ever wondered about the fascinating origins of posters? These printed materials have been around for centuries, and their evolution reveals a lot about our changing world.
The history of posters can be traced back to the early days of printing, when Johannes Gutenberg invented the moveable type printing press in the 15th century. However, it wasn't until the 19th century that posters began to truly take off.
At this time, theatre impresarios and various other entertainers began using posters to promote their shows and events. These early posters were often highly decorative, featuring bold, eye-catching designs that were intended to draw attention from passersby.

A chance this could be #1970s but more likely #1980s as shoulder pads very exaggerated. Has such disco diva vamp glamour. So I mixed a bit of vampire and disco as inspiration with a contemporary character! It's in pure silk and by CACHÉ another fab American label #vintagefashion
Another piece very 'vamp' glamour. Have a few drop dead gorgeous #goth dresses by Sarah Whitworth whose label Deadlier than the Male based Hyper Hyper Kensington High St. Ghost, Pam Hogg also there
Ah #1980s..such parties..how we danced like creatures of the night to Bauhaus

A is for Artes Radium Cream. Launched in London in 1931 it was advertised as a revolutionary home beauty treatment: "the active properties in this scientific preparation stimulate the skin cells, clearing the complexion and refining the texture of the skin in a wonderful way."

Cool Find!!! Adam Wynne recently messaged me to ask if I had any information about the ghost sign on the south side of 111 River Street in Toronto. The building is currently under threat of demolition.
I wrote back that I had nothing on it, surprised because I didn't even know there was a ghost sign at the location. However, I agreed to dig further. All the lettering I could make out from the photos at the beginning was choppy, "Office... .... & Co."
I stared at this faded sign through several years of Google Street Views for far too long, messaged back and forth with Adam about the history of the surrounding area, dove into the usual some online research, and started tracing what lettering I could decypher...

Hay una competencia que predice mejor el éxito escolar que la propia inteligencia y que sin embargo sigue sin tener suficiente peso en las aulas. Por eso y porque lo estabais deseando...

Hoy en #ChapasMaestras, la Autorregulación del aprendizaje.

Dentro hilo 👇 Image
Pero… ¿por qué es importante ser autónomo? Bueno, obviamente por todos los beneficios que tiene para el desarrollo personal. Pero también porque supone un factor crítico para aplicar metodologías activas en el aula. Lo vimos con #LaHistoriaDeJuan aquí 👇
Pero empecemos por el principio: ¿qué es esto de la #autorregulación del aprendizaje? Pues para que lo voy a explicar yo si aquí lo explica mucho mejor el gran @hruizmartin #ÉlEsElCientéfico 🤓
