The Steampunk Librarian | July 3, 2012
Happy July! Ay-leen lists the steampunkesque happenings for the month.
Last week we linked to Prada’s steampunk fashion line; this week, it’s the news that Banana Republic will feature an Anna Karenina line in the fall.
Behold the MiniSteam! Carlex Design went steampunk with the Mini Countryman and it’s beautiful.
From Julie: One of Queen Victoria’s mourning dresses is going to be sold.
And finally, just for fun: Here’s a live webcam of Abbey Road, so you can watch tourists strike iconic poses on the crosswalk and then scurry off before getting hit with cars, taxis, bicycles, etc.

Steampunk Tribune | October 2, 2011
While visiting IO9, a source of much strangeness, they highlighted an article from a series titled “The Midnight Archive”, which focused on “Anthropomorphic Taxidermy”. Apparently quite popular with Queen Victoria, I’d venture that though most have seen said types of works today, either they thought it was endearing, disturbing, or likely a modicum of both. I’ve included a few links, in case one wishes to learn more, or try their hand at the hobby – they are just below, and do enjoy!
