\nThe second of my new Zazzle<\/a> stores is called the Retropolis Travel Bureau<\/a> – yet another agency (like the Retropolis Transit Authority<\/em>) of the retro future. Give me enough time, and I could probably put together an entire New Deal for the Future That Never Was. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"Retro<\/a>Like Ars Celtica<\/em>, which I mentioned yesterday, I’ve taken advantage of a new product range to make some customizable items like business cards<\/a> (check out the Airship Captain!<\/em>), postcards<\/a>, and greeting cards<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Something unique to the Travel Bureau, though, is a selection of retro-futuristic name tags<\/a>. They’re also customizable, so their default label (“You can call me…”) can easily be changed to the name of an event – like a party or convention, for example – and even the names can be added, though you probably wouldn’t want that since all six tags on a sheet get the same text. I really enjoyed making these.<\/p>\n\n

And also like Ars Celtica, there are some uber cool coffee mug styles and other items to choose from.<\/p>\n

I had a great time customizing this store, including a “Tourist Info” page that’s basically the Travel Bureau’s newspaper. It’s got tourist advisories and the sort of news items you’d be likely to find in a community newsletter of this type. With mad scientists and space pirates thrown into the mix, of course.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
