The Eugenics Anthology is no exception. A.E. Samaan has designed a series of "Remembrance Scarves" intended to both inform and help support the research effort. They are unique ways to honor Holocaust Remembrance. You can find the assortment of these "Remembrance Scarves" by browsing to the SHOP.
Restomoder:
Auto design is a way of expressing our mobile culture and thus, an art form. "Restomodding" is a step beyond the historical preservation of an automobile to its original form. "Restomodding" combines the artful reinterpretation of an automobile designer by, not just restoring, but redesigning and updating the technology that goes into a classic auto.
"There is something to be said for building the machine of your dreams." ~ A.E. Samaan
