An interesting sculpture created by Spanish Artist Jaume Plensa of the Catalan region. He lives and works in Barcelona and Paris. Some believe him to be one of most important sculptors on the contemporary art scene.

Vespoli is the only US manufacturer of racing shells following FISA’s Flotation Guidelines.
Recently, Nathan Littauer Hospital wanted a postcard with multiple messages. They had a choice of printing 3 separate cards and mailing them, or trying something new: a lenticular postcard.
