Cool Stuff: Olly Moss ‘Dark Knight Rises’ Mondo Poster

Olly Moss Dark Knight Rises Poster

I’ve drooled over many a Mondo poster the past few years, and I’ve never been able to snag one due to their limited runs and popularity among geeks these days. Luckily, Mondo has teamed up with acclaimed artist Olly Moss to produce a Dark Knight Rises poster that will be sold to anyone who wants one.

From Olly’s annoucement post:

It’s a 16×24 screen print on cream stock, and it will go on sale for 24 hours at 12:01am CT Wednesday the 18th of July for $40 from www.mondotees.com . It’s a timed edition, so anybody who orders within those 24 hours is guaranteed a print.

I think this is a great idea. With eBay scalpers accounting for a huge number of Mondo sales lately, printing a huge run like this will effectively cap the resale value but enable more fans to get their hands on the art. I wish they would do this for more posters.

So, are you going to order a poster on Wednesday?

    I live in Austin and I’ve been following Mondo since they were just a little T-Shirt shop attached to the Alamo Drafthouse. I like a lot of these posters and I’ve managed to collect a handful that I really loved. There is a method to getting the online sales, but it is hectic and nothing’s guaranteed. I’ve never bought one to resell even though I quite easily could because I don’t think it’s fair and I think this timed sale is a great idea. I know the point of the smaller runs is the exclusivity of it, but the 24 hour sale will create that same exclusivity without being such a pain in the ass for fans who want a poster, but can’t get one because of everyone buying them to flip them. I don’t know if they plan on continuing this method of sale, but if it goes well I hope they do.

    • Yeah I almost had their ‘Iron Giant’ poster last week but I was an idiot and forgot to pre-register on the site. Those few seconds cost me a poster I think.
