The Exact Reproduction Wizard of Oz Library
Reuniting readers with Dorothy, the Tin Man, the Cowardly Lion, and the Scarecrow, this is the exact replica edition of L. Frank Baumâs complete Wizard of Oz series. Originally published between 1900 and 1920, the 15-volume library assembles all the Baum titles in one collection, reissued for the first time in their inaugural form by historic publisher Charles Winthrope & Sons, experts at preserving literary classics. The books meticulously recreate every detail of the first editions, including the typeface, endpapers, and even typographical errors that were later corrected. The original artwork by William Wallace Denslow and John R. Neill is intricately reproduced, complete with the brilliant full color and metallic inks that were hallmarks of the initial printings. The artistsâ designs inspired the three included 7âł H bookends that illustrate the green-faced witch, Dorothy and her friends, and even her little dog Toto. (at 7 Gadgets)
Touchscreen Gloves
During the wintertime, we all experience the infamous problem of touchscreens not working with gloves. That’s why Mujjo came up with a revolutionary product – touchscreen gloves. This winter, you’ll be able to use any touchscreen device while keeping your touchscreen gloves on! (at Mujjo)
Beats Pill
Less than 2 inches tall and around 7.5 inches long, the Beats Pill promises sound bigger than you’d expect given its minuscule size. It relies on Bluetooth, so you’ll be able to change tracks directly from your phone or iPod without needing to visit a dock, and you’ll be able to take calls easily using the built-in microphone. As you’d expect from any highly-portable speaker, it boasts a rechargeable battery good for all-day listening, but you might not expect the carabiner on the included carrying case, which makes it easy to clip onto a bag and go.

Natural Keyboard by Robbie Tilton
Do you ever get the urge to stand in the grass barefoot instead of indoors on carpets or hardwoods? Living in an advanced technological world tends to remove many natural experiences from our lives and have them replaced with all things cold and metal. In an effort to create something âboth visually and tactile-ly stimulating,â Robbie Tilton designed and fabricated the Natural Keyboard as a way to return to a more organic product. The wireless keyboard is made of organic materials with the body and keys both made of wood and the frame being outfitted in imitation moss giving the piece the âtactile sensationâ he was after. No watering required! (at Design Milk)
