C-Rations: 0C110010

This week’s offering is Currency.

“Fawn Hall” 8" x 6" Shredded US Currency arranged.

Overnight Lending C says:

If you ever happen to find yourself in Chicago, you should make an effort to stop by the Federal Reserve Money Museum. It is not included on many of the “must see” lists, but it is well worth the time, and if you plan your visit right you may just have a chance to meet with an agent of the reserve who may just significantly open your eyes to the behind the scenes aspects of banking. You also get to leave with a gift courtesy of the Federal Reserve, real shredded money. This dead money, as the card explains, is money that is unfit for circulation due to its condition. Most of it is sent to authorized landfills, but some is sent home with each visitor who stops by.

Remember each Monday during the 3.0 year I am posting an original skull design. My weekly offerings are nothing compared to the one-a-day massive project done by the Skullmaster in 1.0, but hopefully you will find some nourishment in these weekly offerings.

Need more nourishment? You can always Friend or Follow.
