I've been totally obsessed with these quirky and beautifully illustrated Missed Connections prints by Sophie Blackall ever since Joanna posted them a couple weeks ago. When I lived in NY, I used to read the missed connections listings like a juicy romance novel. So interesting to see the regrets people have in not striking up a conversation or getting a phone number. These prints capture them to a tee.
my word, these are sweet! Promptly added to my bookmarks, thanks for the tip x
I LOVE these. She must publish a book of them!
This is fabulous thanks for sharing!
I love these! The bear suit kills me, she should TOTALLY do a book! It would kind of be like PostSecret!
thanks for the link love! xoxo
My friends and I were just talking about Missed Connections this past weekend (and how much we also love reading them!) and said it would be great if someone made mini movies out of them. These are just as great. This is such a brilliant idea!
I love these too, and I’m pretty sure that they are going to be turned into a book eventually, which will be wonderful!
i love love love these! especially the laundry one… do people ever actually connect because of these posts? anyway these illustrations are wonderful!
C’est très beau !
i love them too! they would make an AWESOME coffee table book.
i’m always dying to know if any of those missed connections actually got connected, or if either party saw the illustrations made from the ad.
ooh, so glad to see she’s made them available as prints. Thanks for posting this!
I love Sophie’s work. So simple, yet so poignant. loves.
Definitely going in my google reader.
A few years ago I was Obsessed with miss connections on Craigslist. So funny to read. Even better with an illustration!
