Hi Everyone, new user here.

My main area of interest is posters and propoganda of WW2. Most of you probably have a good knowledge of the area already. My recent project has been to reproduce the famous British 'Keep Calm And Carry On' poster, as a 2 colour screen print. I've printed a series of 3 colours on a heavy art paper, A2 in size. See images below of the original and my 3 hand-pulled screen prints. Would be great to hear what you think!

Very impressive KC, I like the posters a lot. A few of our members here might want to take that slogan to heart.
