Impossible Collection of Cars

Car Pornography

The limited edition volume of Impossible Collection of Cars ($410) showcases the 100 most exceptional cars of the twentieth century. Impossible? Your sixty-five-car garage says otherwise. Think of it as a glossy photo album of your own private collection. From the 1909 Blitzen Benz to a 1997 Porsche 933 Turbo S, each luxury vehicle was chosen for its revolutionary design. This Impossible Collection is written by the Pulitzer Prize winning automotive columnist for the Wall Street Journal Dan Neil, and comes housed in a black rubber clamshell box. The 144-page volume makes for a great visual aide when requesting which car your driver should bring around front.

Rules for My Unborn Son by Walker Lamond

How to Be a Man, Man

Not that you need to improve upon your manhood, but we did want to call to your attention to the fact that the fatherly wisdom of the “Rules for My Unborn Son” ($11.00) blog has made the leap from digital to tangible in the form of a book (remember those?) with this gem from writer and filmmaker Walter Lamond.  Originally created to preserve some of the lessons the author’s father had passed down to him, this book is chock full of nuggets designed to help navigate the rocky road to manhood. For example, “Be subtle. She sees you.” And the invaluable fashion advice, “If you are tempted to wear a cowboy hat, resist.” Words to live by.
