TGA Artist on Artists Series Poster / June 2011

Just got an email about this from El Jefe.

"As part of our year long "Artist on Artists" series with SideOneDummy we just finished the poster for The Gaslight Anthem. The poster draws inspiration from the lyric from the American Slang song "Old Haunts" and reads "oh cherry bomb, you are a mystery. exploding sparkling, quiet nights. my teenage heart pumped all my misery, baby, to fingertips that might ignite." Check out the poster on our site and buy it from SideOneDummy on FRIDAY"

That is such a cool design I will be getting one of these, do you know if it is a limited number of prints?

There are only 300 printed. Not sure about the price.

That did not take long! 300 on sale from SideOneDummy. I may or may not have any for sale later. We shall see how the S1D ones do. Considering the last one I did with Pedal sold out quickly at $40 I am hoping these do as well as they will be about half that price so everyone can afford it. tell everyone you know about it! I will post all the process pictures tomorrow on the FB page. Brian added a lot to this.

I'm sure these will sell out quickly, the design is so good. It will go nicely on my wall with the print you did with Pedal, which is even more incredible in person

Hmmm. just when I run out of wall space, I happen to be moving. Sure would look nice in a dorm......

stunning!

Beautiful! Congrats, El Jefe!
And also Old Haunts is one of my favourite songs of American Slang!
Definitely getting this!

What does Friday mean in European time?

Awesome, hopefully gonna grab one for my dorm room.

If anyone cares - I am showing the process of making this poster on my FB page (https://www.facebook.com/eljefedesign) including sketches and screenshots PLUS how the colors went down. Sample detail: The car is my son's Hot Wheel.

I love these processes as I'm really into graphic and poster designs, I will go have a look now

Just ordered, can't wait for it to arrive and see it in person

Poster is now up for sale for a mere $16 plus shipping. A steal!

Just preordered mine. $16 for the poster and 18,75 for shipping

Well... it is overseas. But damn, that is expensive. Hope you like it!

I'm sure I will! And I'm very excited to see how it turns out printed.
I did mention that Old Haunts is a special song for me, didn't I? So it is just PERFECT for me!

And don't worry about the price. At a total of not even €30 it's still a pretty good deal for a piece of art - at least in my opinion ...
I just thought it's funny that the shipping is more expensive than the actual product

I really don't understand why the world has different measuring units. Couldn't we all agree on either cm or inch? Would make my life so much easier Gonna order around 4 different frame sizes now ...

i put in my preorder. i've been looking around at different gaslight posters for my room and i think this is the one. great work jefe.

The US tried to go metric in the 70s and if you think the evolution issue is a battle, that was even worse.

That's the reason why I still can't find a frame for my Queen Of The Bronx Poster

Is it 18x24 inch? Then you can try allposters.de (there might be even .ch)
I am looking for a frame that fits 18x24, 19x24 and 19x25 ... not getting easier, the more posters I buy

I had to have all my Gaslight posters matted to fit in a frame. I guess I'm not complaining too much, since they look gorgeous that way, but it's pretty annoying to have to do that!

Received mine today, looks amazing as always. Thanks El Jefe

got mine today; it's awesome! thanks Jefe

Can any of you tell me specifics about El Jefe? I always assumed it was just secretly somebody in the band, kinda like how Tomas Kalnoky from Streetlight Manifesto does all of his band's artwork.

Take a gander at my facebook page. Not in the band, no big secrets, you can even meet me at the THC show in NYC. I'll be the one in black and wearing glasses with my beautiful wife.
