The Mystery of the Snowglobe Sarah Mar 26 2009

17 comments Latest by Don Schenck

What a pleasant surprise to find on my desk today! Thanks to the amazing snowglobe creator, Herb Rabbin, for sending this to us. And a thousand times thank you to whoever commissioned the work, since there was no note enclosed. Who could have sent us such an awesome gift? If it was you, please get in touch with sarah@37signals.com!

I think it would be awesome if they make one for Campfire!

Rich Gould 26 Mar 09

A Campfire one would be neat too (and ironic).

Impressive product. Old school on the website, too!

“Made with Mac OS”

That’s awesome! Amazing gift!

I must confess that I did not gift the item in question.

Don Schenck 26 Mar 09

Whoever did it must be a great guy. Or gal.

Jeffrey 26 Mar 09

I think that one of those should come with the purchase of or upgrade to the Max plan! :)

Hopefully there is no tick-tack sounds coming from it, hehe, just kidding…

What a great example of finding an audience for your company. Send an honest gift to someone whose work you appreciate. Ask for nothing in return.

In this case, it’s led to a posting on one of the most popular blogs around. Awesome.

Looks like pacman catching some snowflakes!!

Braxo 26 Mar 09

It’s a trojan horse!

Dennis 26 Mar 09

When can we get ours? Another by-product for sale?

Mark 27 Mar 09

I think Don did it. Being an oldtimer round these parts who has a history of gifting (cigars), I could see him rolling like that.

Don Wilson 27 Mar 09

I’d buy one right now for $15.

Emily 27 Mar 09

That’s so coooooool!!!! :) No pun intended.

Don Schenck 28 Mar 09

@Mark: I WISH I had sent it. I used to be quite good at doing stuff such as this, and I’m slipping.

This is a good reminder to me to get back on my game.

Don Schenck 28 Mar 09

For the record, if I had done it, I wouldn’t admit to it. But I swear it wasn’t me.

I do LOVE snowglobes, though. My wife doesn’t understand my fascination with them. I think they take me to my happy place. And now that I know of the above site, I’m going to get me some custom jobbers.
