During a recent trip to NYC, I was invited by the
Mishka crew to visit their office in Brooklyn. It was great hanging out with Greg (Big Boss Man) and Joel (
Lamour Supreme), getting an inside look at Greg's office and toy collection, snapping some shots of Joel's diminutive/demonstrative toy sets, and sampling some fine Brooklyn cuisine.

I knew I was in for something when I spotted this on my way from the subway station to the building. |
