Vintage Spotlight: Carl Auboeck Collection!

I’ve been lusting over Carl Auboeck’s brass hand and foot paperweights ever since I found out about Viennese Brass. Finally, I couldn’t wait any longer so I decided to go on a hunt for them. The foot was purchased at Hagenauer Gallery (if you want ANYTHING they have it!) and the hand was purchased directly from Werkstaette Carl Auboeck.

Funny thing happened… when the hand arrived it came in an AWESOME wooden box with a percentage sign on it. So I emailed and asked if the boxes came with everything and if there were more designs. Turns out the boxes are old-stock and they have a bunch of different patterns and sizes sitting in the back. So I decided to grab a few! Check out the boxes below, along with art-postcards of Auboeck’s work and the little surprise keychain that came with!

Vintage Style APT. FOR RENT Print Linocut Block 9 x 12.5

 

Inspired by an awesome 60s hand-drawn “Apartment for Rent” sign outside an apartment building nearby. 

The piece measures 9″x12.5″, and is printed on a 80lb acid free paper from French Paper’s Mod Tone Series. Paper has a light printed design (as seen in last picture). The sign is printed using a water based red ink.

Each block print is drawn, carved in linoleum and hand printed by myself. This piece will be signed and dated, then mailed flat in a bend proof envelope.
