Christmas Mailer

As the recession of 2009 left many people out in the cold, we at pylon wanted to send out our warmest wishes to our clients. Newspaper is a great item to start a fire with at home, but we wanted everyone, even those without fireplaces to feel the warmth of the season. We block printed by hand a large flame made up of holiday wishes on over 600 newspapers. We then enclosed them in block printed envelopes and sent them on their way to spread some holiday cheer.
