Our 2017 Kid Icarus & Friends CALENDAR!

frontback

Presenting… Our 2017 Kid Icarus & Friends Artists Calendar!

Each page of our handprinted 2017 calendar was designed by a different Toronto-based artist and showcases a multiplicity of illustrative styles. Artists were given three predetermined colours with which to articulate their vision, adding to the design challenge. These calendars are 12″ x 17″ and coil bound in a closed edition of 85.

If you would like to purchase one of our limited edition calendars please stop by our Kensington shop to peruse a physical copy or pick-up one via our webstore!
