Overview

In a delightfully clever combination of old and new, Rich Neeley has been taking actual vintage books and giving them new lives as iPhone chargers.

The book chargers feature a subtle adapter for iPhones/iPods through the front cover, and then connect to a power source through a wire which runs behind the book's binding.

Neeley travels around Southern California with his wife on book hunting excursions, where they dig up old treasures or Rich to feature in his work. These have included books from as far back as 1914, as well as a copy of the classic Alice in Wonderland.

Priced at around $50 from Rich's Etsy store, these will make a great gift and add a little convenient charm to any home.
