You get the awesome poster, plus an original piece of 100% custom Spencerian script lettering. What will your lettering say? A swear word? A saucy Limerick? A maudlin affirmation? The possibilities are limited only by your imagination and the letters of the English language. If you're buying this one, might I suggest that you buy two or three? They make great gifts!

Hey David! The print looks amazing, and it's already down at the Hotel de Ville frame shop on Echo Park Ave getting the star treatment it deserves. I just got The Park restaurant email and noticed that you are moving to Chicago. Happy landings, and we'll see you on the flickr...

Hey David (and everyone asking), I just got my print today! It looks SWEET!
It's silver metallic foil (I assume) on brown recycled card stock (I assume). Very striking!

Anything happen since April? ;(
Creator David Croy on April 11, 2011
Hi Nancy! Good question - thanks. I'd intended to use a printer that did a great job on a project for the MS foundation (Cal Litho Arts), but they closed, which is a huge bummer (good pressmen are hard to find). So, on to plan B.
Tomorrow I'm headed down to Letterpress Unlimited (I worked with them on a cool wedding invitation) and see what my man there has to say. The main question I'll have is how large he can print and then we'll discuss paper and inks. Don has a wealth of information, so whatever happens, it'll be good to chat about the project with him.
If LU doesn't work out, I'll check out another lithographer. Either way, I should have an update by Wednesday, with images.

I've been watching your project for a while, and now you're almost there! Your project is giving me hope that mine will get funded! Great idea for a project.

This is such a cool design concept, David, and I liked your video excerpt you posted today! Come on people! only two more $50 pledges to go!
Creator David Croy on March 29, 2011
Hi Nancy,
Thanks for the comment. It's going to be A. big; and B. awesome. Just kidding. I'm going to visit the printer this week and get their input on it, too (it's always good to talk to the guys who know what they're doing). I'll post the video with more info as soon as I can!
