Wow, this is absolutely amazing Lucille. Your crafting skills are incredible I must say. It is especially resonant for me because I've been a Shadow pulp and paperback fan for 50 years now and Walter Gibson is one of my absolute heroes - all those great stories to a deadline. How long did it take to created the Gibson one? Anyway thank you for this, I'm blown away. All the very best in admiration Kenny.
Thanks so much Kenny, Gibson was such an amazing person, and I only scratched the surface of his far reaching career! Working out the”bones” is what takes time… once I have that figured out, I can knock them out pretty quickly! Thanks for the kind words. Lucille
This is fascinating, I really love your work. Can I ask how can someone start creating something like this? I simply can not understand how you create all of the detailed things included in the journals
Thanks so much...I usually start with the journal base first (after deciding who my subject is). I use 12x12 card stock for the covers, folding, trimming and gluing each one in a way that seems interesting. Then I choose the pages and bind them in with thread. Once this is done, I can concentrate on making the ephemeral stuff to fill it, which is the fun part! You will be surprised at how easy it is for you to do with just a few basic things. Many people use envelopes and packaging from mail along with magazine pages to make them (hence the name “junk journal “.
@@lucillelovisi4907 Thank you for the explanation! It would be amazing if you do a video showing the process, or at least the progress during time. I know you may have trade secrets hehe but it would be great to see your work being done!
Hi Lucille , great presentation of Walter B. Gibson. Do you know if he always signed with the double WW ? I have a magazine signed by him and the art creator of all The Shadow stories , it does look genuine but is not signed with WW...
So much imagination and creativity, not to mention the genius that comes up with the idea in the first place. So much great stuff and great thinking!❤
I love these journals.
Thanks so much!😊

ha! I’d be glad to, but I’m not sure how that would go over with the rest of Gary’s audience… I’m afraid I’m intruding enough already!
@@lucillelovisi4907 I know we love you already so don't worry about that!
You are so cute and lovely. Wonderful presentation, if i do say so myself. However your camera guy is not so good. Oh, that was me! Darn!

@@jonnyvassvag No not always, not at all.
Greetings - several months ago I bought Lucille’s Doc Savage junk journal at the NJ book fair. Is there interest in selling the Lester Dent journal?
