Every time I see this at Quays, I ponder how many drunken sacrificial lambs had to plunge down these stairs with their lives flashing before their eyes (or not) before someone thought to throw these up on the wall of the landing.
Creative solutions, Astoria-style.
Jack Kirby’s work space.
Absolutely my favorite and most inspiring image I’ve seen in a while.
I love how unpretentious and no-bullshit it is. It’s a plain desk, with a plain chair and a plain side chair, all of which are beat up from use and covered in ink. It faces a corner, one that’s covered in unorganized comics. It’s inspiring to see the desk that held the home of creation for countless characters was so practical. Nothing fancy about it. Just a place to sit down, shut up and do the work.
P.S. I’d like to credit this photo, but I don’t know where it comes from. If this is yours, let me know and I’d love to properly attribute you.
