la beaute cache des laids se voit sans delai. the sons of lee marvin



“the sons of lee marvin” is a secret society created by jim jarmusch few years ago, he describes it as:

“i’m not at liberty to divulge information about the organization, other than to tell you that it does exist. i can identify three other members of the organization: tom waits, john lure, and richard bose. you have to have a facial structure such that you could be related to, or be a son of, lee marvin. there are no women, obviously, in the organization. we have communiques and secret meetings. other than that, i can’t talk about it.”

does anyone recognize this place? if so, i’m sure we’ve crossed paths in one way or another. i wonder if this rugged hidden beauty is the same or has the glacier melted and the ocean turned purple? by kl

H.E. Boucher: live steam-engine boat replica model

talking about shackleton and all… how beautiful is this? i want this as bad as i wanted that kiki de montparnas harness. the 36″ model boat is made by h.e. boucher, inc., madison avenue, new york, circa 1920. the manufacturing label is on the stern and also on the boiler. the boat is constructed out of wood, and has a live steam engine complete with original pressure pump. it also has a screw down rudder to set the course. ships ahoy. by dd
