5 color screen print (with metallic silver overlay)Darin Shock's Cincinnati poster! Signed and numbered out of 211 w/25 foils.
Here's Darin's inspiration in his own words:
"If you don't know, one of Cincy's nicknames is Porkopolis (from being the country's primary center for hog packing in the 1800's). The pig is an icon around here and there are several pig statues throughout the city as well as many other references. Cincinnati was also prominent during Prohibition with speakeasies and mob owned liquor establishments and was home to the infamous bootlegger George Remus. This led me to a depiction of a pig faced bartender serving drinks in a speakeasy. The design would be in my usual style but have a sort of victorian and art deco feel....something classic to help reference the era."
The poster has an old time feel in B & W with a silver metallic layer, though you can't accurately depict that in the image.... See everyone at Merch tomorrow in Cincy!
