When the penny drops, it's worth a million, with Andy Poplar

Published on: 12th April, 2021

After burning out in advertising, Andy Poplar discovered that he could take iconic items of glassware and bring them to life with the tools of typography, wit, wordplay and a slightly askew way of looking at the world. From apothecary jars to laboratory glass, nostalgia filled milk bottles to one-off vintage pieces, it never fails to amaze him that you can now find pieces of Vinegar & Brown Paper on bookshelves everywhere, from York to New York.

We talk about how he’s used creativity to help himself and others through this challenging year, the sweet spot between self-doubt and self-belief, and why the penny drop of inspiration is worth more than a million pounds.
