5449050224 338E1C5D31 B Inspired by the Dia de los Muertos celebrations in San Francisco's Mission District, my friend Jonathan Koshi designed his own series of calaveras, the decorated skulls associated with the Day of the Dead. Along with Pac-man and Alien above, the series includes the crania of Spy vs. Spy, Kermit the Frog, a unicorn, and other characters. Koshi had fifty 12" x 12" letterpress prints made of each design and they're available at $40/print via his blog. "Get Your Sugar"

    Jose Pulido is great too. He has a bunch of Star Wars ones. I got the Boba Fett one – #44, of course.

      $40 seems like a really reasonable price to me!
