Title: mini posters........
Post by: kovacs01 on December 20, 2009, 10:12:09 AM

These were thrown into the tube of one of my recent purchases.  Does anyone know what the story is on these micro-prints?  Both are signed in pencil by the artist and appear to be silkscreened with metallic inks.  The Bad Brains one is 6"x8" for some idea of scale.

The only experience Ive had with Mini's is the Millward Bettlejuice .. And I have seen it refereed to as an AP .. I dont know the significance of them being as I have never seen these small prints for sale anywhere .. So I assume they hold little to no value .. Other than "bonus" items in tubes ..

a handbill would make sense i guess.  i was really surprised at the quality of printing for something that small.

Yeah, I recognized the play on Mr. Marley right away.  The gold inks work really well on it.  The other one was an Emek collaboration.
