New El Jefe Poster (hurricane sandy)

Posted on facebook 5 minutes ago.

We are happy to announce a special charity poster which we created with El Jefe Design specifically to help victims of Hurricane Sandy in our home state of New Jersey. 100% of the proceeds will be split equally between Rebuild Recover and Architecture For Humanity's 'Rebuild Seaside Pier' effort. Our hearts are with the victims still suffering the effects of the storm.

Love,
The Gaslight Anthem

Great poster, think it's one of my fave El Jefe ones yet! Great lyrics choice too

Is that one person or two people?

Two... or conjoined twins. Whatever you prefer. Buy one. I had friends lose homes and loved ones.

El Jefe is killing me with all these re-releases and sales... every time I say "last one for a while" something like this comes up and I have to give in...

Must say though, I'm equally confused by the person/people. May have bee rushed a bit.

It's two people hugging, isn't it? Great poster, great cause. Would I be able to get one in the UK?

Hahaha conjoined twins. It's definitely two people hugging. Bought one. At least I can justify spending this money because it's the least I can do to help the tri-state area while stuck in CA. Hopefully I can really help when I get back home.

I will order one.

Ordered one, not a huge poster guy but this is an image which is so synonymous with Gaslight and for a great cause.

Two people facing each other, instead of one person with their back to us. The angles do make it confusing though as the lower half certainly looks like it could just be one guys butt.

Rest of the poster is fantastic looking though. Not normally a poster person, but might make an exception for this one.

Ordered, absolutely love his work. Get the privilege of paying £7 postage because I live in the Scottish Highlands and Islands though.

Funny how people can look at things differently. I see two people so clearly.

crap it's sold out and I really wanted one

Me too haha. Although it's a very dark/hard-to-see image but yeah I don't doubt that it's two people.

I would buy this in a heartbeat... I didn't even realize it had gone on sale today

El Jefe, please print more of them.... This coudl end up raising twice the money it already has!!

I can't believe this is already sold out....argh.

PS: Can I get a one because THAT'S MY FRIGGEN TATTOO!!!!

(minus the people - my tat was based on the Seaside Ferris Wheel. It's my avatar too...)

I also think it's so cool that the poster doesn't say TGA anywhere. The quote and the image are so powerful.

As a further aside...what happened to Seaside broke my heart. The image of the roller coaster in the water....no words can describe it. At least Maruca's seems to have survived.

can't believe it sold out so damn quick...

my only consolation is a comment left by el jefe on Facebook:

El Jefe Design: More good news tomorrow.


maybe a different color of the same poster?

one can hope!

Saw T-shirts with the design here: http://www.infinitemerch.com/home.php?cat=499

It's sold out already? I really wanted one and I was sleeping ... fuck the time difference!

My dad and I argued over me getting this. 2 hours later, he relented.

It was sold out.

Oh, but on Facebook, El Jefe said that he has "good news" coming tomorrow. So don't worry guys, maybe he'll have more printed!

I'd love a different colour of this! Heres hoping

I've just seen this thread and the poster and was gutted I hadn't had chance to buy one, I text my girlfriend and she told me she saw them last night and bought me one - she's pretty damn good. That and buying a ticket for Manchester next March has pretty much made my day
I'm hoping some more, at least very similar are released for you guys that didn't manage to grab one, and it's for a good cause.
