Reviews for Beer Stained Pulp: A Collection of Nicely Designed British Beer Mats from the Past

"""An incredible array of deftly designed advertising (for booze, salty snacks and hangover cures alike) as well the odd drink-driving warning, all of which demonstrate the enduring appeal of sixties and seventies aesthetics. Whether it's a seal balancing a Guinness on its nose, or a juicy shout-out to Britvic, you're bound to feel thirsty.""-- ""Elephant"" ""If you're old enough to remember these fine creations, then you'll enjoy browsing through [Kimberley's] collection. . . . Listen closely enough and you can hear the sound of pool table balls hitting one another, a nearby darts game perhaps, the smell of cigarette smoke and the clinking of glasses. . . . Beer Stained Pulp is nostalgic stroll down memory lane, giving us a deep dive into the visual communications of the past.""-- ""Creative Boom"" ""Beer Stained Pulp highlights the slightly soggy design appeal of the beer mat, showcasing dozens of examples that prove they're more than just a place to rest your pint."" -- ""Creative Review"""
