Gig Posters Vol. 2, a fantastic collection of poster art from a host of great artists, is out now and I’m thrilled to see that the work of two of my favorite Asheville-area poster artists are included in the book: James Flames and Drew Finley.

From crewchro.blogpost.com:

By the way, if you are just a gig posters lover, with no weird expectations like the sexual life of Hello Kitty, then, I doubt I really have to tell you that this book is for you. 2 years after volume 1, Clay Hayes brings back 101 new designers from, more or less, all over the world.

The book is sized 36.5 x29 cm.On the front of each you will find a poster picture, on the back six small illustration and comments regarding the designer. Each page can be removed thanx to the soft cover format, so that you can easily have 101 posters ready to frame. The paper is fairly thick and dull. But reluctant to destroy the pages, I’ll probably buy myself another one just to hang some of the posters on my walls.
