The author of the Signspotting series casts a gimlet eye on unfortunate souvenirs from around the world-from the kitschy and crude to the downright creepy.From frightening googly-eyed creatures made out of seashells and a Huntington Beach bottle opener in the shape of a thonged butt, to soccer shorts featuring a strategically placed image of Michaelangelo's David's 'endowments,' Crap Souvenirs presents a spectrum of tacky, odd, and kitsch-tacular travel knick-knacks from around the world-enriched by Doug Lansky's humorous captions.

After working the copying machine at Late Night with David Letterman, Spy Magazine, and The New Yorker during college, Doug Lanksy hit the road. He spent two and a half years working his way around the planet, after which he became America’s youngest nationally syndicated columnist. His weekly “Vagabond” column grew to reach more than 10 million readers in 40 major newspapers. Doug currently tours on the lecture circuit and contributes to Esquire, National Geographic Adventure, and other publications, while running his website, Signspotting.
