Giveaway-Eavesdropper: Overheard on the Streets

Giveaway-Eavesdropper: Overheard on the Streets

Leave a comment in today’s post by January 15th, 2016 and you are in the running for this awesomely funny and artistic book.

Open to U.S. Residents only please.

This is not a craft book but if you are into HAND LETTERING I bet you will love it as much as I do for the way the quotes are written. Pop on over to my review on Amazon to see a little flip through the book.

Walk around New York, and you’ll hear the most incredible things—at least that’s what art director Mete Erdogan discovered. So Erdogan took these funny, outrageous, and embarrassing snippets—which he overheard on the street, in stores, in elevators, everywhere—and turned them into unique illustrated pieces that instantly became an Instagram sensation. Here’s a collection of 100 favorites from his 365-day project (which consisted of a drawing a day) that will leave readers laughing . . . and scratching their heads.

    I enjoy reading books that are a little off the beaten path, so to speak. My Husband also says that I have a “warped” sense of humor, so this book should be right up my alley!! To have the drawings in the book are an added plus!! Thank you for the chance at winning it, and have a great 2016!!!

    Hi, Happy New Year. This book is so funny and different I would love to have it. It would make a great coffee table book. I love going to the mall and just listen to what people are saying some of the things I hear are funny but some are sad. I also like hand lettering. Thanks for a chance.
