Here's a fine, gloomy Edgar Allan Poe "Coobie" paper toy for you to download, print and assemble, the perfect antidote for a down market. E.A. Coobie (via Neatorama)

If only there was a paper raven to sit beside him. Actually the raven should be placed near him, but with a book or shelf between the two.

Speaking of Poe, has anyone read anything as sad as Annabelle Lee?

"With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
Coveted her and me."

Damn! imagine being able paint such a picture with words. As much as I'd love to be able to play a piano or guitar, I'd much rather be able to write.

Yeah, the arms are seriously kind of hard to build.
