The Tidyman book
The release of the book is quite close now, hopefully 4-5 weeks away. The book will be up for sale on Lulu.com and be called “Tidyman - A graphic collection of one of our most used but unseen pictograms”.
The book is about Tidyman, the little figure throwing litter in the bin on almost every package there is in the world. Tidyman is one of the most spread pictograms yet often hidden away in some far corner of the product wrapping that we almost forget about him or her.
Around 1997 I started collecting different Tidymen cos once you take a close look you’ll see that there is a lot of humour built into the pictogram by various designers. The book will exhibit about 70-80 of them.

I am so excited to read about Tidyman, I have also been collecting these little men for years, I have quite a cool collection from several cities around the world. I live in South Africa. Please let me know if you would like to see some of them. All the best with the publishing of the book, I can’t wait to see them.
