we won't have cake, but, you might just be able to grab this tasty little rainbow sherbet of a poster to brighten your abode.
el jefe, chris bilheimer, designed the tasty concoction, and we printed it up just a couple days ago. fresh and delicious!! come to see music (reaganometry, dykes of holland and total unicorn), drink beer, and in case you're hungry, we'll have grilled dogs and veg burgers on offer for cheap.
we do work for these folks once every so often. just loaded a mammoth order of t-shirts and hats into their bandwagon right before they headed out for their spring tour, celebrating the release of their latest album, arrow.
the always impressive mishka westell produced the art for their new album, which we also put on that hat and this tee.
if you were watching monday night football this week, maybe you saw wendy's re-debut their iconic "where's the beef" slogan from the 80's. if you didn't, um, you can watch it at the end of this post. anyway, some people we know were handling wardrobe for the commercial shoot, and needed to produce a new version of this here actual vintage, worn out, where's the beef shirt.
so we did a slew of test prints for them.
a tasty ketchup n' mustard color combo was settled upon, we rolled off a bunch of 'em, and they went to work on those suckers with basically a bunch of alchemist's tools and determination. the objective was to make them look 20 years old over the course of about two whole days. no easy task.
of course, they pulled it off, because they're just bad like that. you can see the results below. a kid named reid ewing (he's in some tv show) plays a hipster discovering the transcendent power of burger slogans. heartwarming.
(can't post this without shouting out clara peller, cute old lady from the '84 original, who hailed from chicago which so happens to be kind of one of our favorite places in america. way to go, clara.)
hey there boys and girls. we're sorry to say we have to stop taking any new jobs for the time being. we can only do so much! we'll be back in the saddle for new work come sept. 7th.
as usual, if you have a job in the queue, rest assured we are taking care of you.
