Lost Property: Nobrow 17x23 (17x23 Series)

Nobrow 17 x 23 series

Imagine a place where everything ever misplaced has been gathered up and kept, waiting patiently for its owner to return. This graphic collection follows a postman whose work brings him into that strange setting. As he handles these forgotten things, he begins to see what happens when an object finally finds its way home. The story is brief, quiet, and visually inventive, asking what we might find if we went looking for the things we once lost.
