Great Zoo Graphics
These 3 great animal graphics come from a group of ceramic tiles that they sold at the Milwaukee County Zoological Park. Great design and surprising color choices. I like these so much that they are hanging in my bathroom.
Killer find! Totally dig the stipple pattern on the 2nd pic, and that "Screen Gems Entertainment" style offset line pattern on the first (you know what I'm talkin' about?). That monkey is crazy!
Oh, wow! Those are fantastic. And I'm guessing by the name on them that they're from when the Zoo was located in Washington Park, before they moved to their current location in Wauwatosa, WI. That'd put these tiles at pre-1958.

ReplyDeleteI'm seriously coveting that monkey tile. Want.
