Quoted from Spiritof76Ten:What are your favorite/greatest Pinball Event Posters ever made?
Pinsanity comes to mind. Simple, eye-catching designs, clean & bold text, limited color palette, real screen printing. Don't have time to repost the images, but google is your friend.
Quoted from Spiritof76Ten:And, be honest, where does this one rank among them?
Not my cuppa. Eight (!) different styles of text. Between the large border and overwhelming amount of black background, the main drawing/logo occupies less than half of available real estate. The character, although not my taste, is drawn well and should be larger. At this size I have to squint to see he's holding a beer. Most of the poster is negative space with a kitchen sink of fonts.
Quoted from TheLaw:Ahhh California + Rat Fink art, refreshing!
I kid. Kind of.
We asked Dirty Donny for a poster and this is what he gave us. I think it's great. The metallic art prints of it are amazing. I can't wait to see how the UrbanAztec art prints come out.
These are some bad-ass posters!!! I'd love to be able to get copies to frame (of the ones I attend/have attended).

Thanks everyone on the Pinsanity love - for those that never got to see the originals...These were posters I designed for a small tournament I would hold at my house each year - I did limited screen printed runs, signed and numbered. There has been some interest in me reprinting them so Im going to try and work with a regular digital printer and see if I can get a small amount of each version printed... If anyone is interested I will let you all know if and when they are printed. There's an underlying story of whats going on in each year, and the tournaments were themed and decorated accordingly... there are a few hidden things in some of them.... and yes one of them has a cow... not sure anyone ever told me they saw the cow or not.
