I found an old set of wooden drawers at a thrift store that seemed ripe for refinishing.

I decided to cover the surface of the frame with old newspaper... And by old, i really mean antique. These are actual issues of Scientific American from 1915! Some of the incredible images in the articles include early zeppelin flights and photos of the New York Subway System as it was being constructed. It might seem like i'm ruining these pieces of history by using them in a collage, but i prefer to think of it as immortalizing them.

They're going to need a bit of sanding first.

Featuring a story of the "Strategic Movements of the War" -- World War I.

Top Side : With incredible images of the construction of the New York Subway System.

Second side: "Our First Naval Dirigible"

Surface layers complete! Now to work on those drawers...
