'Stuff your eyes with wonder, live as if you'd drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It's more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories.' 🔥
Ray Bradbury

That's the great secret of creativity. You treat ideas like cats: you make them follow you. - Ray Bradbury

Did you know Bradbury once said that when he died, he planned to have his ashes placed in a Campbell’s tomato soup can and planted on Mars? In the end, he ended up going with something a whole lot simpler—a plain headstone bearing his name and “Author of Fahrenheit 451.” #FunFact

Since it's April, we thought it would be the perfect time to spotlight this beautiful tear sheet and illustration of Bradbury’s “The April Witch,” which appeared in the April 5, 1952, issue of The Saturday Evening Post! bit.ly/4aY1l2O

Bradbury never lost his childlike sense of wonder and that certainly includes his obsession with toy. He was even rumored to have more toys than his grandchildren! We currently host 25 of these toys in our collection. #RayBradbury #DidYouKnow #FunFact #Toys
