NYC Subway Poster. Brooklyn Bridge Art Print

$ 30.00

Brooklyn Subway Poster. Brooklyn Bridge screen printed art print, 19 x 25 inches, hand-pulled silkscreen print. Lafayette, Houston 2nd Ave. and Brooklyn Bridge stops.

Our transit destination illustrations are painstakingly adapted from original linen 1930s-1940s new york city subway destination roll signs. We have purchased original, authentic, 10-40 foot long vintage rolls, photographed, joined and made large-format transparencies and silkscreens for each route name. Although we live in Detroit now, Bethany the designer grew up riding Metro North trains and NYC subways and still has much love for the east coast! Shown: White printing ink on black. All printing and design processes are done right in house, in our Detroit studio located in Historic Eastern Market!
