Elephant Man poster with type



This final version shows the block print-style text has been added. The artwork has also been cropped within the bleed area. The font I feel works very well with the intentionally 'fatigued' block printing style and crude linocut technique. Knowing the Sawbridgeworth Players (Herfordshire, UK) I am sure the play will be equally as atmospheric!

  1. To me, this is fine art in advertising!
    The illustration is wonderful. The type & copy

    Peter, as I get to see your work, more and more I get impressed that your art will entertain the world! Keep on doing it!!!
