Reinhold Visuals Graphic design educational posters, c.1968

admin — Fri, 28 Oct 2011 16:05:24 +0000

Found these on Etsy, and if I had a couple grand I’d buy them all. The info states these are from a graphic poster series used as teaching aids in art and graphic design education/ Screen-printed on heavy cardstock, with descriptive text on reverse. Originally published in 1968, though these are apparently a later (1975) edition.

Denmark Against Landmines Shirts

admin — Tue, 23 Aug 2011 15:52:48 +0000

By Surplus Wonder. Very cool concept, and the resulting shirts look pretty cool, too.

As they say on their site: “The starting point for the concept was the issues around the damaging effects of landmines. 200 T-shirts were folded up, each in a unique way, and then printed on. The T-shirts were sold folded and vacuumed packed; only upon attempting to use the T-shirt will the graphics “explode” – literally in the hands of the buyer.”
