peace poster
the peaceful type. Graphic typography gives Peace a bold platform in this original artist's print. Created in collaboration with Kennedy Prints!, a one-man letterpress printery in Gordo, Alabama, each unique poster comes to life using handset wood type and oil-based inks on eco-friendly chipboard made from lumber industry salvage. A single powerful word-Peace-is transformed into a graphic statement with universal meaning and bright optimism. Each poster is to be appreciated for its spontaneous colors mixed by sight and variations in layout and font. Kennedy Prints! guarantees no two prints will be the same. -Limited edition letterpress posters by Kennedy Prints! -Oil-based inks on eco-friendly chipboard -Each poster is unique; sorry, no special requests -Made in USA Internet only.

Amos Kennedy prints are great! I own work done by his apprentice Kim Ransdell--I highly recommend the letterpress look. The prints look great framed or hanging from binder clips on string!

Neat Product for Price
Date:02/22/2013
The one I recieved was just green with one large Black Peace across the top. Luckily green goes well with my decor. The only problem I have is trying to find a nice way to frame it without it taking away from the raw look.

Waste of money
Date:01/05/2013
I agree with some of the other reviews. Looks like the word "PEACE" was stenciled on a piece of green cardboard. Nothing like shown in picture, It was a complete waste of money. Must send back.

color me disappointed
Date:01/04/2013
I needed one for a gift but i ordered two posters so I would have a choice of which one to give away. I knew they were all one of a kind and would not necessarily look like any of the examples shown, however, based on the examples I did expect bright colors. I was disappointed in the dark muddy colors of the two i received. I ended up storing them away. I'm sure at some point there will be an appropriate occassion.

Poor peace poster
Date:01/04/2013
I read the mixed reviews and thought I would take a chance on getting one of the good ones but was severely disappointed. I received a blue poster with the word "peace" printed in the middle. Not at all what was pictured and not even something worth using. VERY disappointing! Seems there should be some type of quality control!!

Peace poster
Date:12/28/2012
Very disappointed I liked the posters I saw, this one is one color and no visual interest except for the word peace... It does not look anything like what I saw in the examples.

Love
Date:12/02/2012
I'm creating a gallery wall of art in my house and I love how this piece fits in with the other art I already have. I was hoping for an orange scheme, but recieved a black and white scheme. I enjoyed the surprise aspect and love the look of the piece.

Peace for the Holidays
Date:11/30/2012
I bought two of these prints. I love the colors and thought they would make great gifts for the holidays. The beaker glass peace ornament from CB2 is a nice touch to add to the top of one of these prints all wrapped up. The customer service when ordering was superb!

Absolutely beautiful + collectible art
Date:01/07/2013
First, best to select these in person in a CB2 store if you can. I personally wouldn't want someone else choosing my art for me, unless I felt they knew my tastes very well. That said, these prints are AMAZING. Vivid colors that stand out against the chipboard. Incredibly affordable art (given that other letterpress prints with ink on finer paper would be several times the price!) Of course, the message is quite amazing as well ;)

Amos Kennedy is a living legend
Date:12/14/2012
Saw Amos speak last night at an event in Portland. Truly astounding. Every single piece he makes is completely different—not just every design, but literally every piece. That's why these pieces are so special. Truly original art.

What a disappointment!
Date:12/10/2012
I ordered two and one of them was black print on a black background. Really?! the other was black print on plain mustard brown. Not at all what is pictured and both of them went back. Very disappointing because the ones that are pictured are wonderful.

Don't waste your money!
Date:12/02/2012
Read the reviews - bought 3 as I thought this would make great gifts - am sending all 3 back!! Realize these are unique - but 2 of the prints do not even come close to what is pictured here!!!!
Just a single line - PEACE - on a background that has not been colored at all - looks like someone stenciled the word on a heavy peace of cardboard - nothing special about it AT ALL.
You get what you pay for and these are not worth it! Must have even in a hurry to make more for the holidays and offered an inferior product.

Letterpress posters to die for
Date:10/16/2012
These are wonderful posters, and I'd like to correct the caption to say that they are not screened. I know the artist's work and he works exclusively with presses, wood and metal type. These are a fine example of his work. They are probably not a collaboration either because he usually credits collaborators on the poster. Buy them before they sell out like the last set!
