Have an inkling of what to do with a bare wall? Consquider this: 

Each design is printed on an authentic antique dictionary page from the early to mid-1900’s. The pages that are used for each print are random pages from a vintage dictionary.

This makes each print a one of a kind, as no two pages will be exactly the same.

Each print measures 8x10 inches unless otherwise noted.

I love dictionary definitions that are like

What is a bosun? Well, its a boatswain of course!

And now I have to go on a choose your own adventure through the dictonary to figure out what a boatswain is and learn way too much and I always do this because there might be a publishers joke hidden in it vintage books did dumb shit like that to catch plagiarism and etc.
