Otterhead by Tom Maringer & Gustav Carlson
"Greetings Ye Travelers of Time and Space" So begins OTTERHEAD, a story/song written by Tom Maringer and illustrated by Gustav Carlson. Twenty-eight 10" x 10" full color illustrations depict a vision of long ago, and yet to be. The elfin narrator pulls down the Omniverse Atlas to show us a tale spanning two distinct timelines that involves the fate of the Otters, the World, the astonishingly selfless love of a child, and Santa's ability to bend the rules of Time and Space itself to grant her most cherished wish.
Content Warning: This book contains themes of death and cancer and may not be appropriate for very young readers.

Our Process
Shire Post Mint coins are struck one at a time in West Fork, Arkansas, USA using solid metals, hand-engraved designs, antique machinery and traditional coining techniques. For antiqued coins, the coloring/patina process is done by hand, and it is both an art and a science so coins will vary slightly. Our unique packaging includes a description of each coin and translations if applicable.
We collaborate with many artists to create our coins. Learn more about our artists.
