About This Item
Winston Salem, NC: L'eggs Products Inc, 1976, 1976. First Edition, First Thus . Soft cover. Near Fine/None as Issued. Bradley Olman (Photographer); & Claude Martinot Illustrator). Text/BRAND NEW. Illustrated cover/VG; sound w/rubs to leading edges, & faint creasing to upper back corner & surface. PO donation plate/fEP. In 1969, L'eggs began placing nylon stockings in white plastic egg-shaped containers; for the next 20 years the eggs were perenially present on supermarket & drugstore shelves. So brilliant a marketing ploy, white plastic eggs containers spawned secondary uses by crafters, artists, and hobbyists. This volume of craft projects is in response for consumer-turned-craftsmen adding techniques of papier mache, resin castin, marbleizing, decoupage, etc. to fashion home accessories such as planters, toys & games from L'egg containers. Extraordinary, historical record of American home crafts though plastic eggs no longer on the market. The ideas, creatively adaptable, should a L'Eggs, or facsimile, come your way.
