Summary

One of the first impulses of an owner who's lost a pet is to canvas the neighborhood with quickly made poasters. And, even if we haven't seen the wanderer in question, many of us stop to read these notices with their charming combinations of heartfelt pleas, humor and handmade art. For more than a decade Ian Phillips collected lost and found pet powers from around the world. Here he chooses those most notable for their cleverness, humor, sorrow, entreaties, rewards and - in several instances - sheer outlandishness. As a collection, the posters represent an authentic folk art that expresses a commonality between the readers and the makers from the United States to China.
