Great stuff! That bathroom picture is amazing.

Re infinite packaging, sometimes called "the Droste effect," there are other examples including Land O Lakes butter: https://beachpackagingdesign.com/boxvox/droste-effect-p

So cool! Who knew a box of cocoa could have such cultural impact? Currenlty watching looping animated land o lakes gifs. Thanks for sharing!

This is my favorite issue so far! And I had no idea of Malba even after twenty years in NYC!

Thanks Wesley! I only knew Malba from its distintive roofs which I could see whenever I crossed the Whitestone Bridge. It's definitely under the radar!

Whoa! Count me among those who have never heard of Malba. I’ll be headed there shortly!

I think you will like it, just make sure you go on a day the wind isn't blowing out of the west!

I didn't know much about Queens until I moved to Jackson Heights six years ago (from Manhattan) and I only heard of Malba last month! Thanks for covering this neighborhood! Great pics!

I don't know much about Queens myself, but I'm learing more as I go. Jackson Heights is great! Thanks for reading!
