This poster is a classic everytime I see the image it reminds me of exactly why I instantly liked the White Stripes to begin with. God Bless you Print Mafia

^Agreed. This is a great one.

Also, a general question, is there a way to put these poster topics in chronological order (are they in some kind of order now that I don't understand?)?

They are not in any real order, just based on the topic most recently posted in, typical of any forum I suppose. The main website associated with this forum (which is currently under construction day by day) with have posters associated with shows in chronological order which should link to these topics ( :arrow: that's a good idea Ian!), so that shoud meet your request, in time in time.

Probably my favorite piece from print mafia. It would look excellent framed next to Rob's Columbus/Indianapolis 03 set.

We actually had the same reference pics that Rob used for the Indy poster and the Columbus poster set aside for a hopeful future Stripes poster. Jim went to the Indy show and guess what was on the poster at the merch table. We were bummed. We also had the wishbone image too. We learned not to sit on stuff for too long.

They came out of a set of 1969 Child Craft books that Jim got as a kid. We have used lots of stuff out of them. Actually lots of poster people have mined them for goodies. Pretty sure Rob has the same set.

Thanks Connie always wondered where those images originated.

Thanks for the info. From what I've heard there are 15 volumes. Are the images from the same book or different ones in the set?
Sort of like with encyclopedias, some images carry over to other volumes and some are new each time. Also the styles of the illustrations can change depending on which volume and what category you are looking at. There are lots of photos throughout all the volumes though. The best thing is that the pics are of children actually doing things or holding bizarre stuff, as with the wishbone pic.
