In 2013 Patrick Piazza and Art Hazelwood started printing Jose Guadalupe Posada inspired street posters on the 100th anniversary of his death. These Gaceta Callejera, "Street Gazette", were focused on the eviction explosion in San Francisco. Gaceta Callejera were originally meant as a one sheet newspaper broadside about a horrifying or spectacular event. We continue this tradition handing out the broadsides for free as they are printed on the street. Some limited number are available afterwards.
These broadsides repurpose a border, masthead, and other elements that were used in prints by Posada.
