Old Citroen Paper Cars - by Hisa - Carros Antigos da Citroen
Citroën is a major French automobile manufacturer, part of the PSA Peugeot Citroën group.
Founded in 1919 by French industrialist André-Gustave Citroën (1878–1935), Citroën was the first mass-production car company outside the USA and pioneered the modern concept of creating a sales and services network that complements the motor car. Within eight years Citroën had become Europe's largest car manufacturer and the 4th largest in the world.
The Eiffel Tower served as a billboard for Citroën from 1925 to 1934.
Citroën earned a reputation for innovation and revolutionary engineering, which is reflected in the company's slogan "Créative Technologie". Its history of innovation began with its founding, when André-Gustave Citroën introduced the first industrial mass production of vehicles outside the United States, a technique he developed mass-producing armaments for the French military in World War I. In 1924, Citroën produced Europe’s first all-steel-bodied car, the B-10. In 1934, Citroën secured its reputation for innovation with its Traction Avant, not only the world's first mass-produced front-wheel drive car, but also one of the first cars to feature a monocoque-type body. In 1954 Citroën produced the world's first hydropneumatic self-levelling suspension system, then in 1955 the revolutionary Citroën DS, the first European production car with disc brakes. In 1967, Citroën introduced the first swiveling headlights in several models, allowing for greater visibility on winding roads.
André Citroën built armaments for France during World War I and after the war he had a factory and no product. In 1919, the business started to produce automobiles, beginning with the conventional Type A. The Type A was designed by Jules Salomon, Chief Design Officer from Le Zèbre. The brand celebrated its 90th Anniversary in 2009. - Wikipedia
Citroën é uma fabricante de automóveis francesa fundada em 1919 por André Citroën e hoje parte da PSA Peugeot Citroën. Sua matriz é situada em Paris, rue Fructidor. Originalmente um fabricante com projetos relativamente simples, o carro da Citroën chocou o mundo em 1934 com a inovadora Traction Avant (tração dianteira) (1934-1956). Até o final dos anos 80 a companhia teve reputação de projetar carros de uma maneira original. Modelos significativos posteriores incluem a camionete de H (1947-1981, "HY"), 2CV (1948-1990,"The Duck"), DS (1955-1975, "Goddess") e CX (1974-1991).
A história de Citroën começa com o fundador da companhia, o engenheiro André Citroën. Construiu armamentos para a França durante a Primeira Guerra Mundial, mas depois da guerra ele tinha uma fábrica e nenhum produto. Em 1919 começou a produzir automóveis, começando com o modelo convencional [Type A].
André Citroën era um comerciante esperto - ele usou a Torre Eiffel como o maior cartaz de propaganda do mundo, segundo o Livro dos Recordes. Patrocinou também expedições à Ásia e África, com a intenção de demonstrar o potencial de seus carros equipados com sistemas de tração Kegresse para regiões hostis. As expedições eram um sucesso de publicidade.
Em 1924, Citroën começou uma parceria com o engenheiro americano Edward G. Budd. Em 1899 Budd trabalhou no desenvolvimento de pressed-steel para carros de estrada de ferro, Companhia Pullman em particular. Budd produziu aço para muitos fabricantes de automóveis, a Dodge foi seu primeiro grande cliente. Em 1928, Citroën introduziu o primeiro veículo totalmente em metal na Europa. - Wikipedia

Halloween Special - Bates House - by Haunted Dimensions
Psycho is a 1960 American thriller film directed by Alfred Hitchcock and starring Janet Leigh, Vera Miles, John Gavin, and Anthony Perkins. The film is based on the screenplay by Joseph Stefano, who adapted it from the 1959 novel of the same name by Robert Bloch. The novel was loosely inspired by the crimes of Wisconsin murderer and grave robber Ed Gein, who lived just 40 miles from Bloch.
The film depicts the encounter between a secretary, Marion Crane (Leigh), hiding at a secluded motel after embezzling money from her employer, and the motel's disturbed owner and manager, Norman Bates (Perkins), and the aftermath of their encounter.
Psycho initially received mixed reviews, but outstanding box office returns prompted a re-review which was overwhelmingly positive and led to four Academy Award nominations. Psycho is now considered one of Hitchcock's best films and is highly praised as a work of cinematic art by international critics. The film spawned two sequels, a prequel, a remake, and a television movie spin-off. In 1992, the film was selected to be preserved by The Library of Congress at The National Film Registry.
The film is often categorized by multiple sources as a drama, horror, mystery and thriller film. - Wikipedia
Psycho, que no Brasil ficou conhecido como Psicose, é um filme americano de 1960, de suspense e terror, dirigido pelo mestre do suspense Alfred Hitchcock.
Hitchcock comprou anonimamente os direitos do livro de Robert Bloch, que deu origem ao roteiro do filme; ele pagou onze mil dólares e depois comprou todas as cópias disponíveis no mercado para que ninguém o lesse e, consequentemente, seu final não fosse revelado.
Psicose custou 800 mil dólares e faturou 50 milhões de dólares nas bilheterias do mundo inteiro.
O filme foi escolhido como o 11º melhor filme de todos os tempos e o melhor do gênero horror pela revista Entertainment Weekly. O filme foi eleito o 18º melhor de todos os tempos pelo AFI (Instituto Americano de Cinema).
No site Rotten Tomatoes, que reúne críticas de cinema do mundo inteiro, Psicose quase atingiu a perfeição: ganhou 98% de aprovação.
Em 1998 o diretor Gus Van Sant fez um remake do filme, com Vince Vaughn e Anne Heche nos papéis de destaque. No elenco ainda contava com Julianne Moore no papel da irmã de Marion. - Wikipedia

Pontiac 1977 Trans Am Paper Car - by Hiperfanauto
Hiperfanauto is one of the best sites about cars, motoring and a real encyclopedia about the history of competitive motoring in Brazil and Latin America.

The designer JCARWILL , by Hiperfanauto bring to us a real treasure of the Muscle Cars: The Pontiac 1777 Trans Am.
The Pontiac Firebird was built by the Pontiac division of General Motors between 1967 and 2002. The Firebird was introduced the same year as the automaker's platform-sharing model, the Chevrolet Camaro. This coincided with the release of the 1968 Mercury Cougar, which shared its platform with another pony car, the Ford Mustang.
The vehicles were powered by various four-cylinder, six-cylinder, and V8 engines of different GM divisions. While primarily Pontiac-powered until 1977, Firebirds were built with several different engines from nearly every GM division until 1982 when GM began to discontinue engines it felt were unneeded and either spread successful designs from individual divisions among all divisions or use new engines of corporate architecture. - Wikipedia
To the casual onlooker, the 77 Trans Am SE looked like the perfect muscle car combination. With a beefy engine, flared fenders, sport seats, and of course the iconic screaming chicken decal on the hood ... well, the 77 T/A looked like a worthy successor to the legendary 1973 Trans Am SD-455 as master of all muscle cars. - carlustblog.com
Hiperfanauto é um dos melhores sites sobre carros, automobilismo competitivo e uma verdadeira enciclopédia sobre a história do automobilismo no Brasil e América Latina . Visite o site e entenda a história do automobilismo, de uma forma que parece que você está ouvindo um amigo, um cara que viveu aquilo e sabe contar muito bem essas histórias.

O TransAM é uma versão do Pontiac Firebird, automóvel fabricado pela extinta divisão Pontiac da General Motors.
Teve seu auge na década de 1970, quando fez parte do filme Smokey and the Bandit (Agarra-me se Puderes, no Brasil ), com Burt Reynolds.
A terceira geração do modelo ficou muito conhecida mundialmente por ter sido utilizada na série televisiva norte-americana Knight Rider, aqui no Brasil conhecida como Super Máquina. Também foi utilizado nos anos 80 como Pace Car da famosa corrida 500 Milhas de Indianapolis. O vencedor da corrida ganhava uma quantia em dinheiro, troféu, o carro no qual venceu a corrida e o Pace Car. Atualmente, os Firebird que foram utilizados como Pace Car custam uma verdadeira fortuna, pelo fato de terem saído da linha de produção. - Wikipedia

Halloween Special - The Human Skull Paper Model - by Ravensblight
Here is an unusual and bizarre model by Ravens Blight : a Human Skull.
Halloween (or Hallowe'en) is an annual holiday observed on October 31, which commonly includes activities such as trick-or-treating, attending costume parties, carving jack-o'-lanterns, bonfires, apple bobbing, visiting haunted attractions, playing pranks, telling scary stories, and watching horror films.
Historian Nicholas Rogers, exploring the origins of Halloween, notes that while "some folklorists have detected its origins in the Roman feast of Pomona, the goddess of fruits and seeds, or in the festival of the dead called Parentalia, it is more typically linked to the Celtic festival of Samhain, whose original spelling was Samuin (pronounced sow-an or sow-in)". The name of the festival historically kept by the Gaels in the British isles is derived from Old Irish and means roughly "summer's end".
Trick-or-treating is a customary celebration for children on Halloween. Children go in costume from house to house, asking for treats such as candy or sometimes money, with the question, "Trick or treat?" The word "trick" refers to a (mostly idle) "threat" to perform mischief on the homeowners or their property if no treat is given. In some parts of Scotland children still go guising. In this custom the child performs some sort of trick, i.e. sings a song or tells a ghost story, to earn their treats. - Wikipedia
Ravens Blight Skull Model |
A origem do Halloween remonta às tradições dos povos que habitaram a Gália e as ilhas da Grã-Bretanha entre os anos 600 a.C. e 800 d.C., embora com marcadas diferenças em relação às atuais abóboras ou da famosa frase "Gostosuras ou travessuras", exportada pelos Estados Unidos, que popularizaram a comemoração. Originalmente, o Halloween não tinha relação com bruxas. Era um festival do calendário celta da Irlanda, o festival de Samhain, celebrado entre 30 de outubro e 2 de novembro e marcava o fim do verão (samhain significa literalmente "fim do verão"). Se analisarmos o modo como o Halloween é celebrado hoje, veremos que pouco tem a ver com as suas origens: só restou uma alusão aos mortos, mas com um carácter completamente distinto do que tinha ao princípio. Além disso foi sendo pouco a pouco incorporada toda uma série de elementos estranhos tanto à festa de Finados como à de Todos os Santos. - Wikipedia
Aqui no Brasil esta data começou a se popularizar com o aumento da procura por escolas de idiomas.
