Thank you so much!

It's the final day of the campaign. And it's looking like we'll actually quadruple the goal I had set for the new Kickstarter Gold ACME posters! Thank you, it means quite a lot to me that people from so many countries around the world are psyched to look at these odd gadget drawings in their home. Your support makes this job so much easier, and more fun.

I will be signing every print by hand, with a pencil. So when your poster arrives (give me a brief 2 months, they still have to be printed), know that I physically took a look and made sure it looked awesome before giving it my stamp of approval. Except it isn't a stamp, it's literally me writing! Over and over and over and over. But that's thanks to you!

Rock on everybody. Enjoy the dynamite and time bombs and other various explosive drawings in your homes. (Does the FBI read these?)

ps - I'll send a survey asking for your shipping address sometime in August. For now, sit tight and enjoy the summer! Or winter in the southern hemisphere, sorry mates.

Framed ACME Posters. Get your frames here!

Ready to hang:

Want your 'I Spy' ACME Poster to arrive already framed, protected, and ready to hang? I can do that! I've framed hundreds (if not thousands) of prints, and have added a new reward tier today (For US and Canada) for a Framed 'I Spy' ACME Poster.

$39 is a poster (in a sturdy custom shipping tube), $49 is a poster + a wooden gallery plaque (for your own frame), and $149 is for a complete package of a frame, poster, and plaque. Of course gallery plaques will arrive properly affixed to the bottom of the frame, as a complete unit ready to hang on your wall.

Due to the sheer size / bulkiness, I cannot ship frames internationally. But for ease-of-hanging in the US or Canada, a flat $149 and this sucker will show up in a giant box on your doorstep. We have a whole system for packaging here at the shop, and I am finally getting good at it!

Only 4 days left for this ACME Corporation Kickstarter!

Laser Engraved Gallery Title Plaques. For your ACME poster!

Wow, we've reached over 300 backers! That's at least 300 posters that will be on walls all over the world. Let's make it a little more special:

Get your Gallery Plaque:

I've made some awesome 'Gallery Plaques' as I call them, that you can attach to your own frame once your poster is up! I designed them after the sort of frames you'd see in an history museum. Generally gilded and fanciful titles on the bottom-middle of a bespoke crazy gilded frame.

So I call them 'Gallery Plaques' for your frame, or 'Laser Engraved Wooden Gallery Title Plaques', but they're a bit of my own invention. And they look sick:

$10 to turn your house into an awesome museum:

Pledge $49 or more:

The poster & Laser engraved title plaque 18x24" Kickstarter Gold ACME poster, signed by the artist & shipped free to your door.

+ Includes a fancy, wooden gallery title plaque to attach to your own frame.

How I make 'em:

Simply add $10 to your pledge, and choose the new gallery plaque reward! It's available right here on the Kickstarter page as of today.

(For folks buying multiple posters, it's $10 per plaque, if you have any hiccups grabbing multiple prints at a discount (only $30 each), just let me know.)

Funded! Onward!

Pretty pretty pretty good news!

Our I Spy Gold ACME posters reached the funding goal! So we're all 100% definitely getting a print, woo!

In the meantime (between now and July 21), it looks like more folks are hopping on the ride, already at $6,557 (safely past the $5,000 goal).

I've already started a spreadsheet to work on my printing plans, costs, and timetable. Which I'll be updating on my end each week until we know the final count required.

If you want to buy a second ACME poster for a friend, you can simply tack $30 onto your $39 pledge. Meaning $69 gets you 2 posters, because I save on shipping tubes, materials, and postage. So we both win!

If you want to just share your snazzy purchase with your friends,, any tweet, facebook ... thing?, or instant-grahams, are greatly appreciated! Dis' here the link to our ACME project: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/fringefocus/kickstarter-gold-the-acme-corporation

See ya later alligator!
