Some of the contents of the north room of a blacksmith's house on Concord Road in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1785.

I'm turning the entire probate court inventory/assessment of his belongings into an (approximately) 15-page zine. So far, I'm about halfway done.

I love this project. It feels like I'm snooping through someone's house or poking around an estate sale, and I'm having a lot of fun researching the objects and looking up period examples in museum collections and antiques auction sites.

Me, tears streaming down my face, sobbing, as I stare at the stars: it’s just so beautiful

The medieval peasant I went back in time to give a bag of Doritos to, concerned: what terrible and powerful sorcerers they must have in your age, to be able to veil the vault of heaven itself from view, as you say

Me, sniffling: I didn’t realize, I can’t, it’s so much, I, I… are the chips good, at least?

Medieval peasant, trying to make me feel better: they’re… magical, strange traveler
