Vintage German Ads by Ludwig Hohlwein

Ludwig Hohlwein (1874-1949) was a commercial German poster artist with an architectural background who had an affinity for watercolors, tempera painting, and poster prints.   He creates some really rich compositions & shadings and had produced over 3,000 advertisements ranging from pre-World War II posters to American advertisements for Camel and Fatima Cigarettes.  

Hand-Tailored Typography and Posters by Juan Carlos Pagan (NYC)

You might have seen the designer Mac error popup spoof by Juan Carlos Pagan floating around the internet lately, and while it is catchy and clever in of itself, it's not even the tip of the iceberg of his large and attractive body of work.  With incredbile hand-lettering talent and an educated, experienced eye for clean design, his typographic works sing in any medium, whether it be poster prints, editorial covers, or even window blinds.  I wan't able to find a link of prints that might be available, but his Malleable Grotesque typeface is up on MyFonts.
