New North Press (est. 1985) is a letterpress based in London. This poster caught my eye, along with their POP! Goes the Weasel (£75). One for Sorrow is "a nursery rhyme referring to the superstitions associated with seeing magpies. Saluting a single bird and repeating, "Hello Mr. Magpie, how's your lady wife today," is supposed to remedy the bad luck of having seen it."
The poster was done in collaboration with Richard Ardagh (who happens to be a pretty good designer-check out his portfolio!), and priced at £100.
