If one of your New Year’s resolutions was to forget New Year’s resolutions altogether, then we are sorry, here at FPo we are still at it. As a nice convergence of holiday mailer, self-promotion and poster, this handy poster comes with tear-off days so that you can be painfully reminded how long it is taking you to fulfill your resolution, which you can write at the top of the poster.
The poster is perforated 20 times across and 20 times down at very narrow intervals, giving the poster an oddly yet appealing fragility. Even more surprising is that the posters are hand-perforated with a “Carl” by the designers since, as they explain, “no one would take the job fearing that they would make the poster look like a potato chip.”
Perhaps an appropriate resolution for this poster would be “I will tear off all 365 days off of this poster.”
