Art objects feel like they often get the short end of the stick when it comes to graphic design, which is a bit sad - These are sort of like the novelty phones of that era.

Kobrakai are a desert rock/ heavy grunge band from the Gold Coast. Initially formed as a recording project by founding members Kobra Fuzz (aka Phil Skuthorpe: bass/vocals) and Cloudy (aka Neil McLeod: vocals/guitar), the duo released their debut album 'Snuffbox' in 2014. There has a been a changing of the guard on drums with the addition of Loco (aka Adrian Sechtig) in 2018. Kobrakai's 2015 sophomore release 'Zodiac' has met with acclaim and has led to the band becoming a staple of the Gold Coast rock scene, impressing crowds with their tight live show and fat & fuzzy sound. A debut film clip to the track 'Spaceage' was released in 2017, and the band spent the remainder of the year gigging in the northern NSW, Gold Coast, Brisbane and Sunshine Coast regions. An EP ‘Parallax’ was also recorded and released, having been recorded at Byron Bay’s SAE studios with final mixing and mastering taking place at D4 Recording Studio in Beaudesert. The track ‘Big Evil’ was released along with an .....~

This is a behind the scenes photo from Good Omens S1 of Aziraphale's snuffboxes :):

Hi Mr Gaiman,

how are you doing?

I was reading the Good Omens book when I found this:

"Like eggs without salt, you said. Which reminds me. No salt, no eggs. No gravlax with dill sauce. No fascinating little restaurants where they know you. No Daily Telegraph crossword. No small antique shops. No bookshops, either. No interesting old editions. No"-Crowley scraped the bottom of Aziraphale's barrel of interests-"Regency silver snuffboxes . . ."

So what does Aziraphale need a snuffbox for?

I do not see him 'snuff' tobacco so I thought he might use it to keep his travel sweets. I'm imagining it honey-flavoured with a tinge of lemon and ginger and in winter time he switches them for minty ones and on Christman they're butterscotch and candy-cane-flavoured.

Since it's 'Regency', is it a bookshop opening gift from Crowley?

You don't have to answer. I just like to ask questions and probably have my own story in mind of how things went anyway. I should write but I still don't let me do it.

Anyhoo I read The Ocean at the End of the Lane and boy oh boy I cried. Now I know why people cried. It's the feeling of missing something that you did not have experience and still accepting the aftermath of something that needed to happen, I guess? I loved it.

Have a nice day :) Bye

He collects them.
