Rob Loukotka's The ACME Corporation posters were a very very popular Kickstarter project that ended up in the Wall Street Journal and Wired. He only sold prints through Kickstarter, but will have extras, APs, and a variant launching on Thursday. As a fan of the Road Runner & Wiley Coyote cartoons this is very cool poster.
Rob watched every Coyote & Road Runner episode, then hand drew all 126 wacky gadgets, explosives, and items that appeared in the cartoons.
Tornado seeds! Giant magnets! Dynamite! Rocket powered roller skates! Anvils! Giant Rubber Bands! Rob spent over 100 hours illustrating, designing, and researching this one poster.
The fictional ACME Corporation appeared in nearly all 43 Coyote & Road Runner cartoons from 1949-1994. They make any product you can imagine. He has loved The ACME Corporation since he was a kid because they're a true dream factory.
How amazing would it be if The ACME Corporation were real? That's why he made this poster; to make our world a little crazier. Only a giant 24x36" poster can capture the incredible detail of these fun items. The poster was screen printed on thick 'Wild Cherry Red' French Paper, signed and numbered by him.
Along with the red one he is releasing a Metallic Copper Variant.
The drop date is Thursday, May 2nd at Noon CDT (1pm EDT). Available exclusively in his online store: http://fringefocus.
These posters are printed and ready for you to put up on your wall.
