They are nice, if a bit corny
Saturday arvo frivolity.
Something struck a chord when I saw the cat cards - it took me a while to dredge up the memory; Louis Wain, the crazy cat artist! Most of the images are contemporaneous with him, and I wonder whether they were influenced by him?
The First set reminds me of 17th century Japanese medical illustrations, I saw while working at the National museum Of Health and Medicine. Very Cool!!
