15 uses for newsprint

newsprint1
good morning! i’m so happy that it’s friday because this will be my first non-working weekend since september- woohoo! i wanted to kick off friday’s posts with this great series of posters from artists at greenpoint’s pencil factory studios. “15 uses for newsprint” is a promotional newsprint poster zine by 16 of the artists in the pencil factory. i love too many of them to run here, so i’ll just send you to their site so you can check out the full set and shop online. it’s a really fantastic collection of artwork for only $10, check it out (and click here to check out all the spreads, with artists listed below, on flickr! thanks to alex for the tip!

Too cool! I already bought my set. I kept trying to read if it was really for all the prints… amazing :) Thank you so much for this post!

Now I need some frames… lol!

At first glance I thought these were tea towels! They would be beautiful printed onto linen….

Like Veta, when I first looked at this post I was convinced these were tea towels. They’re lovely posters – the last one is my favourite

Just placed my order, these are to beautiful to resist, especially for that price…

These look similar to Showpaper, a NYC based concert listing newspaper. If you find these interesting, i’d recommend checking out showpaper as well! : )
