Mystery Icons

Okay JYC readers, are you awake? I’m going to post these nifty icons, and then you tell us what they are. Not just where they’re from, but let us know what each icon actually represents. After they’ve all been guessed (or if too much time passes by) I’ll post more about this fantastic set. Post your guesses in the comments.

19th Century Clipper Cards

These Clipper Cards make me want to go settle some new territory. An amazing use of color and typography.

Supreme Monkey Exercise Challenge

Chimps make crappy exercise buddies. Or perhaps, if Tiki-Kate is right, they make evil exercise buddies. Or maybe the dog’s just lazy. [via Spectre Collie]

Drink! Coasters! Of! Death!

According to Scary Ideas, these coasters were placed in popular bars throughout Mumbai by the Mumbai Traffic Police, as a reminder of the dangers of driving drunk.

The coasters were printed using a special red dye that only appears when the coaster gets wet — so when a drink’s condensation runs down the glass to the coaster, it creates a ring of blood. Yowzers!

This is a pretty good, if unsettling, use — I wonder if we’ll see this special dye used again in a more jovial form at Halloween. [via BoingBoing]
