We wrote about Shepard Fairey’s Obama posters last week. Here are a few more Obama Posters. If Hillary or McCain throw down some cool posters, I’ll post them too - we’re not endorsing anyone. It just seems like Obama is already winning the poster race.
The first one [above] is from the duo Date Farmers. They’re available via Upper Playground and the ‘Farmers’ are promising to use proceeds to distribute more posters throughout Texas. You can get your own signed & numbered print for $200.
This next one is from the artist who calls himself “The Mac“. Soon to be available from Upper Playground as well.
This one is from Flickr user vivache.
Here are two from Colorado graphic designer Chris Cox. You can download these - and others - as high-resolution PDF files right from Chris’s website.
Here are a bunch from Ray Noland, a Chicago freelance graphic artist who has launched an unpaid, unauthorized one-man street art campaign on behalf of Obama.
The next two are from artist and designer Thomas Brodahl.
Finally, one from designer Brad Kayal
OK - the Obama fans have thrown it down - what are we getting from the Clinton & McCain camps?
Interesting array of designs. I’m certainly no expert in the history of graphic design, but all of the posters except maybe kayal’s seemed to hark back to an earlier, 20th-century, decade. The Mac’s and Cox’s wisely incorporate the very contemporary logo of the actual Obama campaign into the design. It keeps the designs from being over-poweringly “retro.”

I agree. Do you also notice that several have a “halo” and a majestic angel-like look on his face?
