Okay, Ray Fenwick is not my boyfriend. I really just meant that as a general expression of love and affection for his art. Sorry. For the confusion. Sorry Ray. Sorry Ray’s possible significant other. Sorry everyone else. Sorry co-editor Tricia for soiling Stickers & Donut’s image as a reputable source.

Anyway, so I’ve been scouring Ray’s bright and beautiful web-site ever since my friend bought me some fantastically funny bookplates he made for Tiny Showcase. (He is a master of hand-lettering.) Then I realized I had admired some of his work on Threadless, and elsewhere on Tiny Showcase. Then I realized I was in love, which was also about the time I wrote the title of the post.

I love Ray Fenwick’s web-site, but there are several issues I have with it: (1) I want everything, (2) I cannot have everything, (3) I need help locating the things I could, potentially, have.

SO, to increase the problems presented by 1 & 2, and hopefully solve 3, I’ve collected some places where you employed people can purchase Ray Fenwick’s work so you don’t have to merely look at it lovingly on your computer screen, sighing occasionally.

  1. Etsy (Pantry Press). This is where you can purchase some fabulously letterpressed Ray Fenwick designs, including 8 Letterpress Cards for $36 (shown in image above).
  2. Threadless. He has several T-shirt designs, one of which (“Magical Powers” $35) was chosen to be a Threadless Print design (as you may know, I love the prints because you can’t wear T-shirts all the time, but you can always keep a print on your wall!).
  3. Flickr. THERE IS SO MUCH HERE. You can buy prints, or flip through books before you purchase. Highlights include:
    • Images from his beautiful book, Hall of Best Knowledge (availible for $20 on Fantagraphics books)
    • Coffee Money Zine. Funniest. Idea. Ever. Basically, you buy a mini-book of some daily sketches and drawings, and he uses that money to buy coffee. ($73.85, for a breakdown of how that money is used on coffee visit the link!) You can also look through several of these zines.
    • Drama Club. (They were once daily comics, but actually they are not for sale as far as I can tell.
  4. Blue Q RF Merchandise. My favorite is the Being Rich is Awesome Coin Purse, but there are others including: Don’t Freak Out Shopper Tote Bag and Feed the Coinbeast Coin Purse.
  5. Tiny Showcase. Yes, you can get a really huge Life of Mystery poster ($12, I own one and have talked about it at least 2 other times on here…), Book Plates, and more.

By the way, the Ray Fenwick logo at the top of the image is from his webpage which you should visit. Because it has more stuff than I can possibly post here.
