Paul Thurlby's Alphabet Shop

Months ago we saw some of Paul Thurlby's alphabet illustrations and we've been stalking his blog ever since to let you know when they'd be available for sale. Thurlby, a London-based illustrator, has finally made his way to Z and we were excited to check out the full collection which is reminiscent of Tokyo anime, retro kitsch and WPA styles.

 
 

Thurlby is offering his alphabet giclee prints in limited editions of 200 prints of each design. Each is 12" x 9" and includes a white border. We love how each has a semi-distressed look so you can pretend you uncovered it stuffed into a box of "junk" at a flea market rather than bought it brand new.

Here's the link to the Alphabet Shop.

These are my favorite thing ever! Too bad they're so pricey. I wish I could get a whole set to hang up, like in large card size. What say you, Mr. Thurlby? Pretty please?

We're expecting a baby and the name we are considering starts with an "F." Most of the alphabet prints I've seen for F use a fish as illustration, which is so meh. I loooove that he uses Fierce for F. I just might have to pick one up for our new baby.

These are my favorite alphabet drawings. This is a famous artist from Mississippi and they are VERY affordable

(note that he uses fox instead of fish)

Thank you for your comments! Please note that my prices do also include international signed for delivery and packing. I am working on getting A2 size posters made and these would be very cheap. Probably around $10. I will also look into other options. Thanks again.

Just to add, the posters would include the whole alphabet!
