The Internet is certainly an amazing congealer and revealer of all sorts of information, whether current and new or old, unusual, and rare. We all know the overwhelming sensation of trying to sift through it all, so it's with a sigh of relief that certain enlightened minds and tastemakers take it upon themselves to do the hard part for us (i.e. searching Google for hours)!
So Much Pileup is a great example of one such website. The blog collects "graphic design artifacts and inspiration from the 1960s - 1980s," and does so with the finesse of a bona fide curator or art collector (albeit a kitschy one).
The site can be a little meandering at times and centers around a deceitfully simple "theme," so we recommend you subscribe to it and make sure you get your daily dose of old posters, logos, stationaries, book covers, and all that fun stuff. Time saved.
