Letterpress Poster

This poster was made just for fun. While using the letterpress at my school, I noticed drawers full of stock illustrations. Knowing there probably wouldn't be a time when I would use any of them for a project, I decided to indulge myself and make a poster full of the ones I found to be most interesting. It was a lot of fun, and I ran into a bunch of unusual illustrations (i.e. corned beef hash, a running potato, a seal balancing a tire on its nose...). I also used large wood type to spell my name. I printed around 20 or so, and still have quiet a few here and there. I thought the result was, if nothing else, interesting, so I decided to put it here.
