The Gjenvick-Gjønvik Archives hosts a fantastic collection of vintage ephemera, much of it aimed at geneological research. It includes an extensive repository of classic-era ocean liner travel documents that would make ideal handouts for Call of Cthulhu and pulp games in the 1930s. A passage contract receipt is just about the perfect "show, don't tell" clue for figuring out where someone came from or was planning to travel to.
I normally loathe the whole "tiki Cthulhu" thing, but this... this I like. The stylized Cthulhu idol comes to us from Tikiheadz, who specializes in carving tiki idols from concrete. I like how it blends the forms of actual, historic tikis and the traditional Cthulhu depiction. Most polynesian Mythos takes lean far too much into the kitschy Trader Vic's aesthetic, and I say that as someone who loves the cheesiness of 50s era "South Seas" theming.

Artedarme Workshop returns to our pages with their latest LARP weapon. This time it's a recreation of a 16th century Cinquedea dagger, based on an original in the Metropolitan Museum collection. If you're not familiar with this type of weapon you can learn more over on Wikipedia. It was one of the few daggers designed for slashing instead of piercing.
