To help raise funds for those affected by the recent Southern California wildfires, a number of artists have donated over 50 different posters and art prints for sale.  The prints range in size, edition, and printing medium, but they are almost all priced at only $35 each.  All proceeds will go to The Salvation Army for their 2007 California Wildfire Fund.  This is a great cause, and you were probably going to buy a print today anyway, so make it one of these.  Visit ReliefPosters.com.

The nice folks over at Shirts & Destroy have some great Florian Bertmer prints available.  The first is “Sabbath”, which is actually leftover from the Catalyst show.  It’s a 14″ x 24″ screenprint, has an edition of 50 (if I remember right), and is now only $35.  That’s a good amount cheaper than they were during the show.  As of writing this, only about 15 copies were left.  The second new print is available as part of a package.  The “Viva Hate” package includes three t-shirts, a 12″ x 12″ screenprinted art print, and a custom screenprinted box for only $35.  The box set has an edition of 50 and there are less than 30 left.  All around, these are some great deals.  Hit up ShirtsandDestroy.com.

If this doesn’t deserve a huge LOL, I don’t know what does.  This wonderful 3D homage to Shepard Fairey’s popular poster campaign was created by Nelson X Ascensio.  It is 6″ tall, has an edition of 3,000, and will drop Monday, January 12th at JailbreakToys.com.

Everyone knows I’m a big Tado fan, and this is probably one of their best prints yet.  It’s a giant 8.5″ x 39″ giclee, has an edition of 29, and is $250 CDN (about $211 USD right now).  Visit Magic-Pony.com.

Some of these art prints that Nathan Spoor has in his store are beyond awesome.  They are large giclees with TINY editions.  Yes, they are a bit pricey ($125-$325), but I’m pretty sure these would look great in person.  Visit NathanSpoor.com.

I’m going to be brief.  Brad Klausen just put up his Widespread Panic New Year’s Eve concert poster.  It’s a 15″ x 25″ screenprint, has an edition of 50, and is only $30.  Run fast to ArtilleryDesign.com.

This whole poster campaign is pretty much getting beat into the ground, but it is still significant enough to talk about.  The official Barack Obama inaugural store just released this new poster by Shepard Fairey.  It’s a 24″ x 36″ offset lithograph with a total edition of 10,000.  Numbers 1-1,000 are signed/numbered and cost $500 each.  Numbers 1,001-9,999 are not signed/numbered and cost $100 each.  Pretty pricey poster, folks.  Visit InauguralStore.com.

Wow, this month’s Dan McCarthy art print is seriously great.  “Winter Solstice” is a 16″ x 25″ screenprint with glow in the dark inks.  It will likely have an edition of 550, the price is $40.  These will probably go pretty fast, so pick one up at DanMcCarthy.org.

Tiny Showcase will release their second print by Brooklyn artist Caroline Hwang tonight.  As usual, her work is small and cute, a perfect fit for the Showcase.  It will be a small, inexpensive giclee with an edition of 100.  TS prints come out on Tuesdays at 7:30pm EST.  Visit TinyShowcase.com.

Tiny Showcase doesn’t preview their prints, but here is the last one Hwang did for them:

Oooh, a brand new Dave Kinsey art print is on the way.  “Axiom” is an 18″ x 24″ screenprint with an edition of 145.  This is definitely a style change for Kinsey (as far as prints go, anyway), so it will be interesting to see how this one does.  These drop sometime tomorrow (Wednesday, January 7th) at BlkMrktGallery.com.

Gallery 1988’s all-online gallery offshoot, 88Point5, is hosting a brand new show by tattoo artist and illustrator Tom Haubrick.  The pieces are pretty much great, and as far as original art goes, they are all pretty affordable.  Check everything out at 88Point5.com.

Erykah Badu’s new album received a TON of critical success this year, and Emek’s cover artwork really wrapped up the package nicely.  Now the man himself will release a few copies of the cover art as a 24″ x 24″ giclee (edition of 200).  They will drop tomorrow (Wednesday, January 7th) at noon PST.  Visit the Store/Info tab at Emek.net.

Like I said before, Print Mafia are on an insanely prolific run at the moment.  The newest two are a pair of prints from Taxi Driver.  Both “We Are The People - Travis” and “We Are The People - Iris” are 13″ x 20″ screenprints, have editions of 80, and are $30 each.  Visit the Gigposters.com Classifieds.

The folks at King Shit just recently interviewed Burlesque Design member and skateboard designer extraordinaire, Todd Bratrud.  It’s a cool, short read in which he talks about making skateboard graphics, the origin of Burlesque, and more.  Check it out at KingShit.com

The Alamo Drafthouse commissioned not one, but three new posters for a screening of The Godfather.  The first is a 24″ x 36″ screenprint by Jeff Kleinsmith, the second is an 18″ x 35″ screenprint by Billy Perkins, and the third is a 12″ x 36″ screenprint by Tim Doyle.  They are all signed/numbered, and are all available for $30 each, or $75 for all three.  Visit Mondotees.com.

Also, there’s an extra special version of Tim Doyle’s print on wood.  It is limited to 20 (with only 15 available to the public) for $60.  Available exclusively in the Gigposters.com Classifieds.
