Gremlins poster easter egg
« on: June 24, 2014, 04:54:40 PM »
John Alvin left an 'easter egg' on this poster. It's not really all that big a deal but I don't think I ever noticed it on my poster. But I haven't had that hanging up in about 30 years. :-\

This will be a half-assed post, but when visiting a poster restorer's studio, he was working on and showed me a travel poster of the inside of a train station.  A French poster and a French artist.

He always included a rabbit somewhere on his posters, very minute and bearly discernible.

Unfortunately, I cannot for the life of me remember the artist's name.  Hence the half-assedness of this post.

Actually, I am bloody hopeless.

The artist was British and the trademark was a running mouse.
