Pullman


Bob and his llama have found their seats on the pullman car, and are eagerly awaiting departure. The section technically contains two berths, but It did not occur to Bob to book both of them. Now, another unsuspecting passenger is looking for that fourth seat and 2nd berth. What would you do if your traveling companions turned out to be Bob and his llama? 

Bob's compartment is inspired by this beautiful pullman car from the Museum of the American Railroad.



Train Station

Everything is packed, Bob is in his brand new coat, and he and his llama are headed to their platform! Now, Bob is fully capable of carrying a suitcase on his own, but his llama absolutely adores showing off (in the vintage vernacular) just what a husky he is!

This art deco train station was completely inspired by the gorgeous Buffalo Central Terminal, built in 1929. To see more pictures of the station's stunning architecture and deco, visit: http://buffalocentralterminal.org/

Happy Valentine's Day


Bob's getting ready for the day's adventures, with a little kindly assistance. His llama fully understands the importance of having well groomed locks, and takes his contribution to the outcome of Bob's toilette quite seriously! I was very much inspired by the puns on vintage Valentine's Day cards for this one.
