Limited Edition Great Southern Brood Prints
The Great Southern Brood poster series, part of the Cicada Invasion! product line, was silk screened as a limited edition 18" x 24" collection and was created by staff designer/illustrator Andy Gregg. The three poster series receives its title from the nickname for Brood 19, the specific group of cicadas that emerge every thirteen years in the Mid South by the millions. Each poster design is limited to 30 numbered and signed prints printed by Kangaroo Press.
We got to stop by Kangaroo Press's workshop as Ryan Nole, founder and owner of Kangaroo Press, was finishing up our posters. He was kind enough to give us a little tour.

The super cool T-shirt printer.
Letterpress letters.
This automatic screen printer machine silk screened our posters, one color at a time. Brady, Ryan's assistant, was working so hard he was a blur.

We also recently had the opportunity to work with Snowcat Press on a printing of 90 special neon colored prints. They are even cooler under black light.
