There’s a lady at work who has been clearing out her house, as she is moving, and she keeps bringing me awesome things that she was just going to throw out otherwise, and she thought that I might like them for whatever reason. She was right. I love grabbing things like old games and stray keys, because there’s always something I can do with them, even if it’s not right away.

So far I’ve been given an old Scrabble set, with a broken board and missing letters; an old New Zealand edition of Monopoly, which, again, is missing pieces and is ripped and broken in parts; a huge box of old magazines; old keys that have been forgotten about or became separate from their doors so long ago that no one remembers what they unlock; ribbon; a pack of cards; and now these awesome Kodak wallets.

If you’re old enough (though I remember too), when you went to get your camera film developed, they return the prints to you in little paper pockets like these. I remember getting my first roll of film developed, and it came in a pouch, with the negatives too. But then when my colleague handed me these, I thought they were awesome. They’re different to the ones I remember getting, but they are the same thing, nonetheless.

These ones are not only awesome on the front, even the backs are nifty (yes, I just said ‘nifty’). I like the little person, in the bottom picture. And even though these are all Kodak print wallets, they are slightly different, wallet to wallet.

I love the sort of vintage feel to them, and the little camera on the front of that one. I really want to do something with them, but I don’t want to ruin them in any way. I think that they will actually have to wait in a box somewhere for a little while. I think they would make an awesome wall hanging or pasted onto a canvas. Something like that. Right now I don’t have any wall space that I could take up, but when I eventually have my own house then I could definitely put them up somehow. Yup. That would be neat.
