I have often said how much I like blogs, especially those which build up archives. I have often heard the quote that living in this fast developing digital decade not much of our time will be preserved for future generations, but I think quite the contrary. So many great people are working on filing whatever they think is worth it, and are even nice enough to make it available to anyone. So here is my list of favorite blogs dedicated to archiving beautifull illustrations and design of the 20th century. Do you know more?
