King of Prussia


A GTC - Glue-Trading-Card- created from 5 magazine clippings.

Prussion Virtues: perfect organization, sacrifice, the rule of law. At the end of the 1st century the Prussion settlements were divided into tribal domains, separated from one another by uninhabitated areas of forest, swamps and marsh. In each tribe the leader was responsible for the supervision of everyday matters, while the chief was in charge of the road and watertower buildings. Prussia was abolished by the Nazis in 1934 - since then the term's relevence has been limited to historical, geographical or cultural usuages.

This fella looks "kingly" enough to take back Prussia!

And then there is Prussion Blue - any of numerous blue iron pigments formerly regarded as ferric ferrocyanide.
