Scott Sanford was kind enough to send me this entry about a C/D tschotcke that still lives in his home:

Annette and I came across this recently. Hanging around with all the other pencils in our house. We still use it to create the occasional grocery list. It's not as exciting as when it started out as a young pencil back in Manhattan. But it survived the trip across the country and the dot com boom and bust. Now it's living a much quieter life here in the San Francisco Bay Area. Increasingly shorter and not as useful but still proud.

Leslie Cicurel Engel was kind enough to send these to me:

Hi Steve, To my surprise, while packing up my kitchen in advance of a renovation,I found a coffee cup set from Chiat/Day days. These were given to us in commemoration of the opening of the Venice Beach 'binocular' office. Don't know if you can see the date on the back of the saucer ; it's 1991.They have a reproduction of the drawing Frank Gehry scribbled on a napkin and gave to Jay when trying to describe what the new building would look like... or so the story went. In any event, thought you and other C/Ders would get a kick out of seeing them again. I'm wondering if anyone else still has a set. Hope you are well. Best regards - Leslie
