The Equipment Plates

Ordinary objects, drawn like engineering.

You knew the weight of a cork ball in your hand before you knew your own. Five and a half ounces. Everyone knew that number.

Everything in it

A cork ball in cross-section. A pitch dimensioned in feet and inches. A tape ball, wound. Rendered as technical plates, with callouts and tolerances, the way you would draw a bridge.

The joke is that we took it seriously. The other joke is that it was always this serious.

  • On the listCalendar cover: a cork cricket ball drawn in cross-section as a technical plate, showing the cork core, wool winding and stitched seam, on a cream background.
