[George W. Sheldon, Selections in Modern Art]

Photographs of the cover and pages from George W. Sheldon's "Selections in Modern Art," held by UNT Special Collections. These volumes contain 125 plates of steel engravings and etchings representing works of recent and contemporary artists of the late 19th century. The etching Cedars by Moonlight by James Smillies, 1878, is one of the earliest instances of an American etcher beginning to differentiate between daylight and moonlight, a distinction easier made in theory than in practice. The cover is a severely worn brown leather, the front of it containing the title over an illustration of a woman etched in gold and black. The spine contains the title. Image 2, a page containing an illustration called Cedars by Moonlight by James Smillie. The illustration is black and white and is of cedar trees standing tall atop a hill on a cloudy night, the moon partially hidden behind the cloudy sky. Image 3, a page containing an illustration called "Homeless" by Gustave Doré. The black and white illustration is of a woman in a long raggedy dress.

[Guide to 10-codes and CB slang]

Photographs of a Radio Shack guide titled "Guide to 10-codes and CB slang," held by UNT Special Collections as part of the Radio Shack and Tandy Corporation Collection. The guide is a white slip with the words CB Slang on the side followed by a list of words or phrases. On the right are a couple of pictures of people with phones/technology, the words "Radio Shack" at the bottom left in red. The second image is of a remote-like item that has the title at the bottom in red. Above that is a black knob with numbers around it, and above that are three switches. The top of the remote has three knobs. Founded in 1921, Radio Shack began as a small supplier of ham radio equipment, eventually moving into the realm of high fidelity stereo equipment. In 1962, the Fort Worth, Texas based Tandy Corporation purchased Radio Shack and transformed the business model to include an abundance of small storefronts, a refocus on selling only electronics, and eventually adding a repair shop service. In 2015 and 2017, after years of changes in the electronics market and declining sales, Radio Shack filed for bankruptcy, though it still sells through a …

Photographs of Amy Lund's "Hygge," held by UNT Special Collections. The first is of writing on top of the box, which has white writing in a square in the middle of the box. The second image is "Hygge" from the top. The paper structure is propped up to look like the structure of a house, the left side red and the right side is grey. The third image is of the front of "Hygge." This shows the front of the house structure showing the left red and right grey side. The inside of the house is lit up a bright yellow. This small paper house captures the inviting feeling of comfort and simple domestic pleasures. With its soft paper made from worn clothes and a small tea candle that flickers a warm yellow light within, Amy Lund’s "Hygge" truly reflects the meaning of this Scandinavian word. Text around the base of the house reads: “We are the product of our past and producer of our future. We maintain our sanity and human-ness – we cope. We give ourselves permission to reinterpret tradition. We start small we start at Home. Welcome.” Text on floor of house reads: “Home is the emotional …
