Exclusive online shop 20ltd has recently released a new book called Einstein’s watch.
Newspapers and magazines are never short of glossy images urging us what to aspire to. But what things really do represent the world’s most desirable possessions? Are they necessarily expensive or can they cost nothing at all? Are they always the subject of global fame or are they frequently obscured from the public’s gaze and imagination? In this charming departure from the usual yawnful, consumerist commentary, Jolyon Fenwick and Marcus Husselby conduct a judicious review of the year’s available treasures. Their (almost) serious-minded selection takes the reader on a sublimely itinerant journey: from icons of high and popular culture to turning-points in history; from the apex of Hollywood glamour to the most closely-guarded of government secrets; from 104km above the earth to 100ft below the London streets; from the loftiest prices of the world’s great salerooms to the gloriously free-of-charge.
Items featured include: King Kong’s Head, a collection of the Braille edition of Playboy, secret MI6 tunnels, Gandhi’s glasses, Steve McQueen’s motorbike licence, the Space Shuttle Endeavour, Michaelangelo’s first ever painting and the last picture of Marilyn Monroe.
The ninth issue of Acne Paper addresses the dual themes of Art and Spirituality, and explores the relationship between these two inextricably linked areas of study.

Being Tyler Brule is a publication about Tyler Brûlé. Or rather, it’s a publication about the fascination of the jetset lifestyle and attitude that he portrays through his writing in Monocle and FT.
You can read that the blog was inspired by Gridskipper´s series “What would Tyler Brûlé do?”. But even more, as they say, by this clip:
