This poster was originally designed to protest Oliver North’s 1994 campaign for the U.S. Senate. Although freed on a technicality, North was nonetheless convicted of lying to congress and shredding documents. I offered this image to the Charles Robb campaign--North’s political opponent at the time--but no one would return my calls. I later hired Hatch Show Print in Nashville to letterpress print an edition of the poster for my own amusement.
