tried replying to an earlier post about posters

yes, the upstairs has about a 90% coverage from all the other
bands i am into also.

but remember, while several of the posters are the actual ones.

an open source one called p o s t r a z o r

if you have a decent quality scan, or image, you can make your own
on several sheets. it will create a pdf with overlaps. so you can make
it as big as you want.

i stayed with 16x24 inches, and 20x32 also. then there were smaller images
too.

also, for some of them, i printed to glossy paper, and then mounted
them to canvas to hold them in place. there were several types that
i did, including mounting to slim canvas, and then placing those
in a frame also.

When you go to that page, there should be a "Buyee" pop-up that you can click through. Buyee will help you forward-ship the order overseas.

But finding album/single/promo artwork from the 90s and early 00s is tough. I wonder if there are digital booklets from the reissues.

As a graphic designer and lover of Warwicker's work, I'd love to get copies of "In The Belly of St. Paul" and "The Typographic Mind" but they're really tough to locate online.

i would LOVE to do a fan based visual guide to underworld mk2 - going from
the 1992 - 2000 era.

do you want to collaborate on a project. i have tons of source material, and
have scanned a lot in already. send me a private message, and let's see
what we can do,.

i use blurb.com to print out the books. have done some for abc, cabaret voltaire,
human league, and duran duran. i am currently working on a 1980-1984 visual
guide thats going to be about 120 pages.

these are all for private use and not for sale though.

This reminds me, is there anywhere online that has good scans of Underworld artwork from posters, albums, etc? I've found some things on John Warwicker's website, but that just scratches the surface.

that john warwicker site is awesome, there are tons of scans,
and most are high quality.

the underworld section has quite a few.

got the book yesterday.

thanks for the heads up, and advice.

its very cool, and more of barebones typographic exercise,
as opposed to the floating world, which was much more complex.

can cross that off my list now.

maybe try to hunt down some of his other books i don't have.
