It's New to Us: CTA Letterpress Posters
By Chuck Sudo in Arts & Entertainment on Sep 2, 2011 2:00PM
Few things become unwanted earworms more quickly than the automated "L" station and train announcements. People have had harrowing nightmares where "Attention customers: an INBOUND train toward the Loop will be arriving shortly" plays endlessly, with the train never arriving at the station.
Monkey-Rope Press is the brainchild of illustrator, printmaker and bookbinder Marnie Galloway. Galloway's Etsy store is a glorious time suck of amazing prints, none more so than these letterpress posters of "L" station announcements. We also love the bicycle subculture pugilism prints.
It's never too early to begin your Christmas shopping.
