Home to poster artist /​founder extraordinaire — Billy Bishop
What They Do: Art rock posters, custom designed stickers, screen printed apparels along with graphic designs of course.
If you’re not buying in bulk or need a design, you should stop by during
— East Austin Studio Tours — sale on most of their productions
** pick out a tee from the bin, pick out 1 of 4 prints that’s already set-​up, receive your custom shirt for $ 10
** bought a really great Shepard Fairey poster print the following year!
— Flatstock during SXSW — sometimes free posters are given away or bid on a vintage print poster from the 80s

Located on the east side, this place is one of the best hosts during E.A.S.T. (East Side Studio Tours), which takes place every November. Both years I’ve gone, their cheese nacho, sausage, and beer keg supplies are seemingly endless.
What they actually do is screen printing (t-​shirts, posters, stickers), graphic design, and web design. You know that classic band poster you’ve seen at the Continental Club or Emo’s? It was probably done there.
So, you and your friends have always wanted to make a t-​shirt just for your posse? Go to Obsolete — that’s where me and my friends are soon going to get our «Friends Forever» t-​shirts made. The prices are reasonable, and you’ll have a t-​shirt like no other.
