VNA Magazine | Eine ltd edition issue 13
To celebrate the launch of issue 13, the guys at VNA (Britain's foremost independent Street Art Magazine) wanted to do something special.

The Moniker Art Fair, which ran from the 14th to 17th of October, hosted the launch of issue 13, and we had the pleasure of screen printing an edition of 190 magazines with Eine's fresh 4 colour artwork.
Every copy was signed by the artist, with 100 of the edition for sale on the night and 50 being put randomly into distribution.
The remaining 40 are destined to become gold-dust, coveted by wealthy art collectors and street art aficionados alike.

WHITEDUCK | ARTCRANK
Bikes are the world’s most fun, accessible way to get around. Posters are the world’s most fun, accessible art form. ARTCRANK brings them together.
The first-ever ARTCRANK London show will take place on Friday, September 17 and Saturday, September 18 in the world-famous confines of Look Mum No Hands! The show features original artwork by UK artists, priced to let you put down a pint or three and still take home all your favorite posters.
................................................
This is our contribution. It will be for sale at a price of £15 at the show, then if there are any left over I will put them up on our shop after the show.
It is a 3 colour screen print on 270 gsm GFSmith Colorplan Bright White Stock. The main image is made from two photographs I took at last years 'Hacksaws Challenge' bike race (Bristol to Bath and back again).
I am so pleased with the way these came out, especially after we managed to print them on perhaps the most humid day of the year, which played hell with the paper stretching fractionally along the grain. Still managed to get an edition of 30 with the registration of the three colours bang on.

Death Before Dishonour | Assassination Black
As always we love seeing and indeed printing the Death Before Dishonour shirts. This is the latest addition to the range, and it is a cracker. Snap one up now on the Death Before Dishonour store.
Here is some more info taken from the Death Before Dishonour site.
"....Cult London brand "Death Before Dishonour" has built it's following by refusing to pull punches. With no big boss to pass things through it's open season to get deep down and dirty. Images are often inspired by true "Blood and Guts" hardmanisim, with a definite ironic twist, throwing it straight back at anyone foolish enough to embrace thuggery. Experimental garment construction, martial arts military references and a cheeky little hint of "How's yer father?" come together to creat a wearable "In yer face" style...."

BRIGHTON FREAKSHOW | Exhibition
THE FREAKSHOW WENT OFF!
Whoever of you out there that made it down for the opening night would have been witness, and as we managed the drive from Bath, we too saw the wall-to-wall going off that went off.
Really excellent turnout to a really excellent show, and one that we are really proud to have been involved in. We printed prices for eight of the artists involved, these being illustration wizards:
Tom Burden.
The range of pieces was diverse, and each offered a different challenge in terms of separation and print. We were stoked on the results of everything going out the door, and double stoked when seeing everything framed and on the wall amongst the rest of show at St Peter's Church in Brighton.
Until the opening night we had only met with Megamunden in person, so making it down was a fine opportunity to meet with everyone else involved. We sure reckon these guys and girls have a good thing going on down South, and strongly recommend dropping by the show whilst you can. It's running every Saturday until near the end of the month, so pen it on your calendar with indelible ink.
