The rush to reproduce vintage posters continues unabated, with the latest artwork on the market being this Tea Revives You print.
Available in red on off-white or the porcelain on recycled brown paper pictured here, this hand-pulled screenprint features a 1930s slogan, revived by Lucas and Hayley using a piece of period typography.
The run is just 180, available either framed or unframed and selling for £20 unframed.
And while we are on the subject of iconic buildings, they don’t come much more iconic than Battersea Powerstation, the subject of this print by Nick Hannam, but previously seen on album covers by Pink Floyd and later The Orb.
The building’s famous outline is seen here against a backdrop of a very 70s sludge green sky on this screen print. It is a limited edition, restricted to just 33 copies, hence the price tag of £890, although it does at least come framed.
It is available to buy at Places and Spaces.
Very simple, but very effective – that just about sums up this Paul Rand Dada poster from Habitat.
It’s actually a book cover (unsurprisingly for a book about the Dada movement), designed by the noted American graphic artist in 1951 and reproduced by Habitat as this 50cm x 70cm poster.
And you can pick up this little piece of history fairly cheaply at just £15.

If you’re not familiar, Sir Terry Frost was an early and influential British abstract artist – and this PVC bag uses a detail from one of his images.
That image is Orchard Tambourine. The bag itself uses just dome of the ‘patches’, printing them onto a cotton drill bag using a hard-wearing PVC coating.
It’s sized at 30 x 34cm, so pretty large. And it’s available from the Royal Academy of Arts for £25.

Something cool for your coffee table, an art investment and just a great example of period illustration – thats what you get with Charley Harper – An Illustrated Life.
Compiled by New York designer Todd Oldham, this is the definitive collection of Harper’s work, unique mid-century illustrations of nature, animals, insects and indeed people from a six-decade career. In particular, it showcases his illustrations that appeared from 1950-1975 in the Ford Times magazines, as well as in books such as The Giant Golden Book of Biology (1961), Betty Crocker’s Dinner for Two (1961), The Animal Kingdom (1968) and Birds and Words (1974).
Sadly, Charley Harper died this year aged 84, but did get to see this project through before his death. As such, AMMO Books is offering Charley Harper – An Illustrated Life as both a large format standard book or as a luxurious limited edition, personally signed by Charley Harper and Todd Oldham.
It’s priced from $200 (around £100).
