Rob Jones Third Man Records And White Stripes Posters

Rob Jones has a bunch of new posters up for sale.

First up is a an uncut sheet of large-size postcards made to celebrate the Record Store Day release of the complete White Stripes’ Peel Sessions. As with the previous set Rob will be signing the back of each with a small drawing or a short missive likely dealing with buying records.

Rob felt the opening of the new Third Man Records was a good enough excuse to revisit his mega-city image made for a series of 2005 TWS Detroit dates.  For those posters he attempted to emulate the city collage Boris Bilinsky created to advertise the film Metropolis.  For this poster he wanted to try an arrangement more aligned with his usual style and ardor for symmetry.

 The original idea for this primary image was to just keep it in print with different colors for the TMR Detroit store, but in light of the Stripes release for RSD Rob thought it might be more interesting to theme it up with the band. Beyond adding the lights this time around, he littered the city with a number of Stripes references including characters and items from past Stripes posters.

Rob Jones White Stripes Under Amazonian Lights Uncut Postcard Set

For the recent Third Man Records Vault release of “Under Amazonian Lights” Rob Jones was asked to design a few elements for the box set: namely the graphics for the box itself, an enamel pin, DVD on body graphic, and a set of postcards highlighting the three South American dates from the 2005 tour. For these cards Rob thought it would be fun to continue documenting the globetrotting of the Tin Man and Dorothy as seen in the “Under Great White Northern Lights” set. Considering Brazil’s considerable primate population, it seemed appropriate to bring the winged monkeys into the mix.

For Record Store Day, Rob made a set of enlarged screen printed versions. He wanted to keep that version special for TMR and RSD so his copies are all uncut and editioned separately from their divided RSD counterparts. Both versions are printed on special linen paper to mimic antique postcards from days of thoughtful communications past.

Rob is signing these on the back and like the RSD ones, he’ll write a short missive in the last space or maybe draw an exhausted rabbit.

The print is 12 x 23 inches 2 color screen print and includes the 2005 Tour of Brazil: Manaus, Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo. Signed & numbered edition of 114.
