The art explodes with a succulent, indulgent blend of design, illustration, typography, and hilarious copywriting. Written and curated by Tom "The Dude Designs" Hodge, poster artist extraordinaire and VHS obsessive, with a foreword by Mondo's Justin Ishmael, this collection contains over 240 full-scale, complete video sleeves: Action Comedy Horror Kids Sci-fi Thrillers It's a world of mustached, muscled men, buxom beauties, big explosions, phallic guns, and nightmare-inducing monsters.

All are amazing and inspiring works of art that captivate the imagination. It's like stepping back in time into your local video store. Ships Fast From The USA!
